Change is always tough! The reality of changing times can cause confusion, uncertainty and insecurity. Uncertain times for leadership requires certainty in decision making, clarity in communication, authentic engagement and a process of buy-in.
Political, economic, social and technological factors impact on the uncertainty of our current times! The one constant is the uncertainty for employees. A well thought out engagement with employees during times of uncertainty is critical to the success of the organization. I reiterate, ‘ignoring a situation does not mean it will go away.’ Thoughtful and purposeful and increased ways for employees to voice their hopes and fears is critical. A thoughtful leader will nurture employees to share their feelings in todays unpredictable environment and encourage their practical solutions. This process is the root that builds and sustains an organization.
