Take the time to reflect and apply...especially if you have the place that helps get there. Every leader needs that time to improve. #reflection #growthmindset #personaldevelopment #personalgrowth #leader #leadership #leadershipdevelopment #leadershipskills #leadershipcoaching #elite_pod #manage #manager #management #managementconsulting #smallbusiness #smallbusinessowners #smallbusinessweek #smallbusinessadvice #humanresources #edmondok #edmondoklahoma #shopedmondok #okchumanresources #tulsaoklahoma #tulsasmallbusiness #tulsasmallbusinessowner #okcsmallbusiness #edmondsmallbusiness https://www.instagram.com/p/B0x90o9ANnV/?igshid=bht3vu3l4nyw

Sometimes the best leaders you can find are the ones who think that they're comfortable, but are really searching for something they can’t quite define. They know their why but can't articulate it. At the same time you can see internal capability that is just ready to be developed and it will enable them to explode. There were a couple of guys that I had that were quite comfortable. Their outlook in the Air Force is what I term the “second assignment flyer syndrome.” That's what I call it… because it’s what they remember. These individuals remember being at the top of their game and their profession as an aviator. They were instructors or evaluators and they held a lot of legitimacy inside of their previous flying organization. When they came to our team for a completely different type of mission they were forced outside of their comfort zone. What they weren't seeing was the critical skill and thinking capability they were developing. This was an additive skill to put on top of what they had already gained in their legitimacy from their previous job. When you combine those skills and challenge them with responsibility to operate completely around the world (literally or figuratively), untethered by direct leadership, their credibility across your organization will grow. However, the “second assignment flyer syndrome” guys saw this development as doing a job. And just wanted to go back to where they were the expert. Funny thing…they weren’t the expert anymore…someone else had replaced them. Only through direct intervention was I able to focus them on the future rather than the past. Tell them…You’ll never repeat the experience! (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Devin M.

The ones that crave development and the gentle pushes are the easy part. The hard ones are people you can see potential in but either haven't performed in the previous role or maybe have fallen off the path…but you know they're ready for that next step. Alternately, they may be quite comfortable in their day to day existence and don't see the need to push outside their comfort zone. #leadershipdevelopment #lead #leader #leaders #leadership #leadershipgoals #leadershipquotes #leadershipcoaching #leadershipskills #elite_pod #smallbiz #smallbizsat #smallbiztips #smallbizlife #smallbizsquad #smallbizowner #smallbizlove #business #smallbusiness #smallbizowner #manage #management #managementconsulting #managerlife #lakegeorge #hr #lakegeorgeny #albany #albanybusiness #portsmouthnh #bangormaine #bangor #niagarafalls #niagara #niagaraonthelake #niagarafallsny #niagarabusiness (at New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/BypdszIl3sI/?igshid=c8a328i9npg7

Your example will stimulate the culture you need for Proactive Organizational Development - teams that understand the Strategy and how it supports Operations through Resources employment, empowerment to make a decision or provide data via feedback, and work towards the common goal of success! #smallbiztips #leadershipdevelopment #smallbizowner #smallbizlife #leadercoach #smallbiz #smallbizsat #smallbizowner #smallbusiness #smallbizsquad #elite_pod #leadership #leadershipdevelopment #leadershipcoaching #businesses #business #manager #management #managerlife #strategy #strategygame #digitalstrategy #cultureclub #workculture #businessculture (at New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bym9DKCFQvt/?igshid=9mfmu8vie7jm

Going off into the unknown is a little bit uncomfortable. But taking this path will force your overall development as a leader for the future of the organization and the health of your own personal expansion as you continue to move forward. I remember sitting in the hallway of the old quad at Officer Training School in Maxwell AFB, AL. I had an upperclassmen telling me that in his time in the Air Force (6 weeks by then) he’d learned more than I could ever show based on his 20 minutes around me (I had just left being a TSgt/E-6 for this amazing example of leadership). Frustration and laughter mixed inside me…but the opportunity that came from exposing myself to new and uncomfortable situations has only increased since then. #leader #leadership #leadershipquotes #leadershipdevelopment #leadershipcoaching #leadershiptraining #leadershipskills #elite_pod #smallbiz #smallbizsat #smallbiztips #smallbizlife #smallbizowner #smallbizsquad #personaldevelopment #improvement #improveyourself #selfimprovement (at New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bykd06qFsWM/?igshid=pl63soa45j34

Producing your leaders is a journey that starts with talent identification, or finding that diamond in the rough. Next is figuring out how you're going to develop them…or what the future of that development is. Some people are easy to develop because they crave the opportunity and they're ready to take the next step forward. Some need the push. #talentid #hr #leader #lead #leadership #leadershipquotes #leadershipdevelopment #leadershipcoaching #leadclimbing #leaders #elite_pod #smallbiz #smallbizsat #smallbusiness #smallbiztips #smallbizlife #smallbizowner #smallbizsquad #manager #management #humanresourcesmanagement #managementconsulting (at New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByXx67IlLhM/?igshid=182vg4to6ccc4

An organization’s ultimate need is to produce leaders first and foremost. Where these come from and how they arise is up to you...plant the seed! #lead #leader #leadership #leadershipquotes #leadershipdevelopment #leadershipcoaching #leadershipdevelopment #leadercoach #leadershipskills #smallbiz #smallbizsat #smallbiztips #smallbizlife #smallbizowner #smallbizsquad #elite_pod #business #businesses #manage #manager #management #managers (at New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/BySGjA4Fajn/?igshid=17akhzvtkqge2

We live in a world dominated by multiple different types of information. As you know, you can pick and choose what you see every single day based on the algorithms of whatever platform you're looking at. Whether it's Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, or the podcasts that you choose. How much of that information can you set to focus your leadership development on preparing for the future…the unknown…the proactive? #smallbiztips #smallbizowner #humanresources #smallbizlife #smallbizowners #lead #leader #leadership #leadershipquotes #leadershipdevelopment #leadershipcoaching #leadercoach #smallbizsat #elite_pod #manager #managementconsulting #management (at New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByKfB9bF7ZL/?igshid=8b84zf2biedz

Don’t forget, you have to remember that every person that comes into your business, your organization, your company, is an adult on top of educational and developmental backgrounds that your team hired for a reason (yes…YOUR team - you own it now)… They brought some strength to your company. So what was that strength? Identify that, figure out where the development stalled, and then decide how you can bring that expertise back into the fold where you need it. This process will engender trust, as an advocate for them and their future. This will also solidify their place on the team, quickly driving them to become one of your performers that you'll be able to count on a day to day basis. #yourteam #leader #leaders #leadership #leadershipgoals #leadershipdevelopment #leadershipcoaching #leadershipskills #smallbiz #smallbizsat #smallbiztips #smallbizlife #smallbizowner #smallbizowners #elite_pod #humanresources (at New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByCzqGxFCd8/?igshid=o9uj3xwizwa4
