3 Tier Effectiveness | Leading Throughout - Being a Leader That Provides Exceptional Value

There are 3 leader-manager tiers that directly affect successful business and operational results.

▪️ Tier 1 - The Executive Level

An executive leader's personal performance => Model from the top. Imagine spending a ton of money on management training and then undoing it by senior leadership...happens everyday!

▪️ Tier 2 - The Senior Leadership Team

- How senior leaders operate as reflected by the executive leader's intent & ability to cultivate a cohesive & effective senior team. 

- How Senior leadership leads, develops and manages the managers

▪️ Tier 3 - How your extended management team performs based on Tier 2 leadership and management impact. We see developing middle management as an essential senior management responsibility. When a lower tier manager is not contributing/performing as needed...this is information about the leadership effectiveness of the senior leadership team - not HR, by the way. Unfortunately, it can become an HR issue when it's not initially treated and seen as a leadership responsibility.

Important Executive Leadership Reality

The lack of executive effectiveness throughout becomes an organizational issue.

- I've observed Tier 3 to be the toughest and most neglected  because the consequences of not doing so are not directly felt by senior leadership (at least in larger organizations) and it's not seen as a business imperative.

- It's also where many of the "trouble spots" occur within an organization.

- And, where the least amount of development, improvement money is spent.

- And...wait for it...where you will be most "in the dark" - when the most significant, costly issues arise. This area is where your executive blind spots live. And, unless you have organizational awareness and have the kind of company culture that allows issues to be quickly revealed in a healthy way, they will forever undermine your executive leadership efforts. 

- This is the stuff that shows up on an employee survey and you say..."I didn't know that was happening...or I didn't realize morale was that low...or that manager was so harmful." This is called executive blindsiding...and it can be costly!  When you use our solution, you won't be blindsided again!
