Cornerstone Blog 4 Principles to Develop Next-Level Leadership at Your Company

4 Principles to Develop Next-Level Leadership at Your Company

May 5, 2022 by Cornerstone International Group Leave a Comment

A company has to find a way to nurture talent if it wants to succeed. Developing leaders within the ranks will enable organizations to grow and meet future needs that arise naturally.

In this article, the author, Scott Miker, suggested four principles while working for a company that was growing. He created a training format, which he implemented to develop new leaders and prepare them to take additional responsibility. They structured their work in line with these four basic principles. It transformed the company’s core values into everyday activities. This helped them develop their own leadership style.

Principle 1: Take ownership: The first principle is to accept ownership. They needed to own their jobs. They have to own the processes and procedures. They have to own the results and production output. When everyone takes ownership, people are ready to accomplish what’s required without avoiding responsibilities. Leaders need to keep pushing things ahead.

Principle 2: Use next-level thinking: A new approach to leadership is required. The next level of leadership necessitates a shift in perspective from linear to systems thinking. Next-level thinking is a great way to solve problems. True leaders can spot issues and find solutions.

Principle 3: Respect time (yours and others): The third principle included time management. Leaders must value their time adequately to implement effective time-management strategies. Learning to prioritize was a part of this training.

Principle 4: Focus on progress, not perfection: Nobody’s perfect. Leadership could be the difference between scaling a firm and plateauing. Seeking perfection implies we avoid experimenting because we don’t want to fail. See whether your patterns are improving.

These principles can be applied to enhance and grow leadership as well as to develop the talent inside the firm to almost any business team. Consider using them if you’re in need of a succession plan for your company’s leadership.
