"Focus on what's working rather than trying to repair what isn't "
It's human to often look on the negative side in any situation before focusing
on the positive. With people, we tend to always notice a person's weaknesses
rather than their strengths. We do the same thing to ourselves, fretting about
our faults rather than acknowledging and celebrating our positive qualities
and strengths.
Strength Based Approach To Leadership Development:
•Leaders have particular strengths which they were either born with or have
developed over the years. Such skills come more naturally to them and take
less effort to develop.
•They prefer talking about and working on these strengths rather than having to focus on fixing their weaker or non-existent skills.
•It can be demotivating and even stressful for a leader when they're being
judged against their weaker areas - like a right-handed person being assessed on their ability to write with their left hand.
•When an organization focuses on helping its leaders develop and use
their strengths, the leaders can more easily excel both individually and
collectively.
