This is not about placating people or generating warm and fuzzy feelings. Explicitly and implicitly recognising the value of support staff and their work is crucial to well-functioning organisations.
“The most important thing a leader should focus on is providing role clarity through setting clear expectations about what each leader is expected to do and why.”
“Leaders’ behaviour is highly symbolic and it’s contagious, for better or worse. So start with yourself and be brutally honest.”
At LKS Quaero, we use the Instincts to Excellence Scorecard tool to provide some objectivity to assessments of culture. Importantly, we work with organisations to choose the measures to assess their culture, rather than assume what the ingredients should be.
