Activity overview
Empowerment is giving people a share in important decisions, giving them opportunities to shape organisational goals, acting on their input and giving real leadership opportunities.
Accountability without empowerment is like asking someone a question and then telling them to shut up! But accountability is NOT a dirty word. Accountability is necessarily holding people to account because a lack of accountability often leads to low expectations and low aspirations.
Empowerment without accountability is like giving someone a voice but then not being the slightest bit interested in what they do with it.
Nick believes that authentic leaders:
- Ask the right questions, but genuinely support people and listen to the answer;
- Empower people to deliver so as to build trust;
- Celebrate and reward success as if that success had absolutely nothing to do with themselves
- Take responsibility for organisational failures, whilst shining a light on the successes of others
Agenda
In this keynote/workshop, Nick draws upon his extensive senior leadership experience to explore with you the need to create a workforce culture of belonging, dignity and fulfilment in order for the perfect balance of empowerment and accountability to work its magic.
