The Importance of Leadership and Empowerment 

Great leadership is a massive factor in making the business successful. It makes their team feel empowered and more confident with themselves. An empowered team will value their job, be more productive, be more creative, and respect the company. Most employees will respond to empowering leadership more because they will feel more of significance. Overbearing leaders can cause discomfort, loss of enthusiasm, and passion in the workplace. Is it difficult to empower your team and be a great leader? Definitely not! Although leaders are humans, too, they make mistakes. That’s why empathy is essential. Being more open to errors and using those experiences to grow is part of the team effort. Great leaders need great followers too!

Having an understanding and empowering approach towards your team will uplift your company performance.

Leslie said, “A company’s most important asset is its people, so the better our people are, the better we all are.” Being a leader doesn’t mean you are the most qualified, you can actually learn a lot from your team, if you treat them with respect! If you are wondering how Leslie is able to do it, her words of wisdom might spark something within you!
