One thing that maybe doesn’t get the light it deserves when you are considering how to implement your strategic efforts is the role of leadership.

Leadership is really the key ingredient and can mean the difference between success and failure in your strategic efforts.

But what does being an effective leader in your strategic efforts really even mean?

Well, context definitely matters.

But here are 3 things that you always should do, if you want to be an effective leader.

1. Focus on vision:

One of the keys to moving your organization forward and maximizing the effectiveness of your teams is to provide them with a vision of something bigger and better, of significant change.

2. Develop your team members:

Leadership isn’t about you, it is about the people that are on your team.

The thing about your team is that you need to develop them. Developing and growing should be constant companions of your team and your leadership style because the thing about modern business is that the only constant is change.

3. Give your people room to make decisions:

In the old days, command and control was the leadership style of the day.

Those days are over.

The way that leaders act today is about serving their teams and putting people in the position to be successful.

This is more important than ever because there are so many specializations that it is almost impossible for any one person to know everything. So it is important that as a leader, you spend some time focusing on how you can put your people in a position to be successful by making their own decisions.
