Appco Group India’s monthly statistical report focused on
measuring the performance standards of the leaders in our business reveals that
time and again, the high rollers in all our teams have shown exceptional
performance standards. Our leaders have developed themselves with a lot of
integrity, hard work, curiosity and intelligence. However, to sustain in the
business, there is a long way to go with maintaining the high level standards
they have set for themselves and their teams.
The whole point of running our business is to focus the
energies, attention and vision to a common goal and infuse the same objective
and passion into the team with an aim to set the performance standards and work
towards achieving and maintaining it with time. A good thing about our business
is that it will immediately make the high performing teams a standard
organization with an individual status growing up on the records. The challenge
here is to sustain the standards set by the teams with a vision to outdo your
own records. The industry mantra is if you have high standards, you got to make
it much higher. And that’s the idea behind adopting various leadership programs
and workshops to develop our high rollers constantly and empower them to be
courageous enough to set and maintain their standards in the business.
Of course, for challenging stuff like this, there are going
to be loopholes and failures in the system. If the goal of the business, for
instance, is to create a wonderful product/service or provide excellent
customer service or conceptualize innovative marketing campaigns- the leader is
going to have to establish and maintain structured standards for him and the
team. And accept the matter of fact that there are going to be lags in the plan
which has to be addressed with solutions. It is here where his individual qualities
of leadership will shine and pave the path.
An ideal leader, whose goal is to maintain the high
standards of his business, has to be well equipped with essential skills where
he can share his ideology with his teams and build the trust value. The factors
that can help him sustain the business with high standards include being able
to communicate the successes and failures with equal emphasis, evaluate the
quality of work done constantly, actively seek opportunities to involve the
team in the decision making process, trust and empower the employees with
responsibilities and address them with timely support. These traits go a long
way in addressing the problems and ensuring a smooth business structure.
In a competitive environment, they can be regarded as the
pre requisite for sustaining the business with high standards and out doing
your own mettle to constantly improve and grow.
