Are You Planning Company Growth in 2020?
Are you making a plan to grow in 2020? If that is your goal, your company growth depends on your workforce being up to the task. Do you have the talent and leadership you need to get your company to the next level? Do you think you can’t encourage your employees’ leadership development if they don’t already have a management or supervisory title? No matter what their current position is, helping them expand their skills and become better leaders is in your best interest. Hoping they will rise to the occasion when needed without a development plan is not realistic. If you want to promote from within to keep knowledgeable talent in-house and encourage loyalty, you will need to have foresight and consistent commitment to turn that into a workable system.
Here are some things you can do in your organization to develop your employees’ ability to help you achieve company growth in 2020.
- Become aware of your own strengths and weaknesses as a leader. Find out how you come across to others and what you can do to improve your communication to get better results. Be an example of how you would want your employees to lead.
- Share the information your employees need to know so they can see more of the big picture that will allow them to be strategic with you as you plan your company growth. Their understanding of how what they do affects the whole company can be very motivating for them and profitable for you.
- Delegate important projects to employees that you think have the ability to rise to the task so they have the opportunity to learn something new. Employees get bored with routine tasks and feel stuck when they never get any challenging or rewarding work to do.
- Take the time to evaluate employees and assign them to teams that have members complementing each other’s skills and talents.
- Listen to employees’ ideas. They are often experts in their own area and have the ability to challenge the “we have always done it this way” attitude and can suggest some innovative solutions. They will be more motivated to help you with company growth.
- Overall, your goal is to develop your employees to the point where you are no longer needed to direct every activity. That’s when you can move on to strategic thinking and planning your company growth instead of worrying about day-to-day operations.
