Leadership behavior: Creating a rewards program for employees
Leadership skill: Motivation
Employee survey: “When people work extra hard to meet our goals
they are rewarded accordingly.”
When employees feel their accomplishments are appreciated, they
are more likely to work towards new goals and achievements. The
reward program would help motivate and inspire employees towards
reaching individual and team objectives.
Leadership behavior: Addressing potential issues before they
become problems
Leadership skill: Communication
Employee survey: “I believe the company mission and vision drive
the decisions that are made.”
Closely monitoring your staff, you will notice areas that have the
potential to develop into a problem. Leaders can establish a steady
flow of communication by making themselves available to discuss
issues and concerns with employees. Employees would feel more
engaged and embrace the organization's strategic focus.
Leadership behavior: Attending to the needs of the employees
Leadership skill: Creativity
Employee survey: “My Supervisor talks with me to help me
determine my training and development goals.”
By monitoring your team members for potential issues, leaders can
attend to employees' needs. Supporting professional development
and growth would allow employees to develop their skills and
capacity to be more productive. Leaders can use their creativity to
approach problems and deliver innovative solutions and ideas.
Leaders can take action by keeping employees in the loop about the
survey results to inform them about the shortcomings and the steps
to achieve a way forward for improvements. This will demonstrate
how valuable their insights are while showing that the organization is
forward-thinking and dedicated to advancement. Employee feedback
would improve positively, they would feel encouraged to take the
next survey, and the organization would achieve better favorable
results. Overall, enhancing leadership behaviors and skills in all
categories would increase employee quality of work and improve
their productivity and performance, thus improving the
organization's performance. This can positively impact the next
survey since there would be an increase in the number of employees
who take the survey and positive favorable responses. The
organization will benefit from stronger leaders and a more engaging
employee experience.
