𝐏𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞-𝐂𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲: 𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞- 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐚gement (and the managers?)
This article from Fortune flashes a recognition of that management styles and models of the past are not working effectively, and the people-centric approach is a win-win formula to ensure:
• Engagement
• Motivation and productivity
• A better climate
• And…loyalty.
Time Etc replaced managers with coaches based on feedback from employees who expressed a need for goal setting, feedback, personal and professional development opportunities, and autonomy.
Coaches’ activities focused on mentoring, feedback, and empowering employees to be productive and achieve more.
Everything started with the organisational culture: self-improvement with the company’s resources, from courses to workshops.
Results shared by the company.? Sick days and turnover reduction improved performance on critical goals by up to 20%.
In addition to complimenting the company’s executives, a reflection is due: what are the disciplines and leadership types have already spoken out about mentoring and supporting people?
Agile, Lean management principles, Design thinking.
Does it ring a bell?
It is good news to read that People-centric with active and focused coaching can be done and that applications of diverse methodologies according to different goals within a change management approach facilitated by the company can be achieved, partially removing bureaucratic levels and creating opportunities to build a non-manager organisation.
It is also possible to see a bright light at the end of the tunnel related to a faster decision-making process and a shift toward empowering people.
It already made my day! What are your thoughts?
