Their megaphones can serve to affirm or legitimize what many leaders have known and demonstrate which is that authentic care for the team yields significant fruit. I am grateful for the powerful voices of certain business leaders and influencers of late encouraging leaders to take a more kind and caring style with their organizations. Leaders' ability to achieve organizationally may lie in the ability to demonstrate care, clarity and connection to their teams.Ĭare matters. Upon studying and working with organizations over the last two years in particular, the alliteration is prologue to these words coming to life as actual organizational imperatives. I am a fan of alliteration and the power of three but that is not what drives my intent with any discussion about care, clarity and connection. The hope, though, is that something new truly emerges from these situations of severe trial before the learning opportunities vanish and we fall back to familiar and less productive rhythms as leaders. Care, clarity and connection are being forged in organizational crucibles in these less certain times.
