Delivering results is an absolute requirement to be a successful leader of a successful team. Even if your team members love you and everyone wants to be on the teams you lead, you still have to get things done.
So, how does that fit in with being a kind leader?
That’s what we talk about in this episode of Connect Mobilize Deliver.
In part one of this two-part series (click here to listen), I explained why I use a framework of Connect Mobilize Deliver when leading teams.
I also talked about connecting your team and gave some super simple techniques you can use to connect your teammates and help them fight the loneliness we all face at times.
In part two I focus on mobilizing teams for action and leading them to deliver the results your organization needs.
And, I explain how you can be both kind and respected as a leader of teams who get things done.
We’ll also cover the mindset you need to mobilize your teams to deliver results even when they encounter difficult challenges.

3 Fundamental Career Skills Related to Today’s Episode
1. Expecting resistance
When our minds expect resistance, we are less likely to be surprised when we and our teams encounter inevitable barriers. Preparing for resistance protects us against our own insecurities which can attack when things get difficult.
2. Communicating hard truths early
Helping your team be aware of and prepare for the reality of the challenges they are facing is critical. Sharing hard truths early will give you and your team an advantage over your competition and bring success.
3. Preparing for action
Leaders and teams must be ready to act. Our minds must be prepared for action. We need to continually fight against our tendency to succumb to the inertia of doing nothing or continuing to do what we’ve always done.
