Develop Self and Others
How you can demonstrate this behaviour in practice:
Challenge and identify opportunities for growth
Providing constructive challenge can generate enthusiasm, commitment, and high performance. Understanding individuals will help you to set appropriate targets for each person and the team. Create opportunities and allow time for individuals to develop by identifying challenges that stretch them, encouraging them to find innovative solutions. Effective delegation is also key and allows colleagues to take on greater responsibility and develop skills and knowledge.
Provide coaching and mentorship
It is necessary to make time for others to bring out the best in people. Use open coaching questions to support colleagues to identify their strengths and skills that need to be developed and work towards goals for themselves. This will increase their confidence and focus on solutions. To mentor, share your expertise and offer advice and guidance to support development.
Promote self-care
Ensure that you have a healthy work-life balance, taking time for development and self-care and encourage your colleagues to do the same. This will not only help everyone perform effectively, but also build individual and team resilience.
