KEY ACTIONS AND QUESTIONS

Reflexes (Immediate actions)

• If I need to communicate a decision, I first check that it is consistent with our stated values and objectives • If I need to announce a change in direction, I transparently explain the “why” behind this new orientation • If I give feedback to a team member, I use a consistent framework and tone for everyone • Establish and maintain regular communication rhythms (e.g. weekly meetings, monthly newsletters) • Develop and share a personal leadership philosophy so your team understands your guiding principles • Create and follow standard operating procedures for recurring tasks and processes to ensure predictability

Practices (Habits to cultivate)

Self-Assessment and Reflection (Questions for reflection)

• How would my team describe my leadership style? Is it consistent and predictable? • Are my actions aligned with my words and with the organisation’s values? • Are our team processes clear and applied consistently to everyone?
