If your business has a momentum stall or a fall, as hard as this is to hear…YOU own it.
Here’s what I mean…
As the business owner/leader, you are the primary source of momentum (forward or backward), for your business/department.
There are 3 components of momentum for an organization:
- Attitude of the leader – every leader must recognize and accept responsibility for the #momentum of the organization
- Atmosphere of the organization – High belief in people, expectancy of good things, vision worth following
- Accomplishments of the people – Successive wins you can quantify, ways to celebrate wins specific to the vision, remove the fear of failure – we must be able to try new things
There are 4 kinds of people when it comes to momentum:
- Momentum breakers – they stop momentum with negativity
- Momentum takers – they sap momentum with self-centered behavior
- Momentum fakers – they derail momentum with their motives
- Momentum makers – they create excitement and enthusiasm for others around the vision
A leader must recognize where people fit in their organization or department/team and either find a way to engage with people to make them momentum makers or find a way to remove the negative influence.
This topic would be a day well spent for your leadership team.
