In this week’s video blog our expert guide, Don Hadley, talks about what happens when the leader or business owner gets “off track”, or inadvertently sends the wrong message.

This can happen for several reasons.  Sometimes is that the owners’ perceptions are that they are being direct and honest and sharing with the team.  However, the team interprets this as the leader or owner not having confidence in the work they are doing, success of the organization, etc.

So what helps get them back on track and on the right path?  Try these tactics:

• Getting back to working shoulder to shoulder
• Clarifying expectations and goals for the individuals, teams, and organization
• Create double checks to ensure consistency on the path is maintained

In today’s business climate, it is critical for leaders and teams to have clear, open conversations that are sometime even candid and tough in order to keep growing the business.

• Does your organization and team have double checks in place?

• Do your employees and team members feel comfortable bringing difficult situations or questions to light?

• How often do you check to ensure you and your organization are on the right path?  Has it changed and have you adjusted?
