Tweddle Group Outward Mindset

"It is not good enough to tell people to do their best for others and results. It is the obligation of the leaders & organization to provide a framework, a structure that enables them to do so."

Hmmmm.... I am intrigued. It sounds great, but it is vague enough where I cannot fully grasp what they are suggesting. How could we gather more information?

I asked this skilled leader (who I would describe as an out-of-the-box person) to share with me any problem she is currently facing. What she shared was a very common problems in her industry. She then described the problem in a way that would be an in-the-box-way of framing it. Meaning that she located the problem outside of herself. Outside of the leadership team. The problem, she said, was with the frontline workers. If only they could be doing things differently, then this problem would go away!

Many leaders often indicate that people are their greatest asset. I want to take it one step further and say, "No, it's not necessarily the people in their companies, but the relationship/responsiveness between these people that makes the difference." You may technically employ the best people, but if the relationships between them are poor, you are more likely to have mediocre teams and produce mediocre results.
