How To Maximize Impact With The Organizational Trifecta

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗼𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴?

That is one of the most powerful questions that we should ask ourselves but also our talent and teams.

The fact is what we are willing to tolerate becomes the standard. Standard that sets the tone for talent's acceptable behaviors.

Standard that, in the end, shapes the Organizational Culture!

Culture: A bulls-eye of every successful and thriving organization. A key element of the organizational trifecta that we simply can't neglect or ignore, yet so many organizations still do.

𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗸 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗼𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲?

Then it would be best to revisit our expectations and see how they match with what we tolerate, such as:

Be accountable vs. Have excuses Following process vs. Having exceptions Following through vs. Letting things slide Bring solutions vs. Bringing problems  Create value vs. Doing the job

to name a few common traps that often organizations are experiencing.

But why should we be alarmed?!

𝗡𝗼. 𝟭 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝗧𝗼𝘅𝗶𝗰 𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲!

You might be surprised how many team members do not know the proper way to behave within the organization based on shared beliefs and values established by leaders and teams. Why? If it is not communicated, demonstrated, and reinforced through various methods, it is ultimately shaping talent perceptions or misperceptions of appropriate behaviors and understandings.

Leadership: the second trifecta that every organization needs, especially as we are facing massive resignation and a lack of its presence.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗜𝘀 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗢𝗿𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱?

Too many organizations are worried about who is leading instead of how is leadership doing by leading day-to-day initiatives. If we create an open dialog with internal talent and teams, we will discover very quickly what is working or not and why.

A leadership culture is one where everyone thinks like an owner, a CEO or a managing director. It's one where everyone is entrepreneurial and proactive. ~ Robin Sharma

But how many people in leadership positions truly think and act like an owner in a proactive way? Many statistics by top analysts indicate that we are still falling short in this department. The sad truth, indeed.

But it does not have to be this way. Gloomy statistics can and should change, especially as so many are hoping to be part of the winning, Champion Culture.

Surviving is very hard, thriving is much better!

And if we ask our biggest assets, our talent what they think or suggest it may completely surprise us. That is why we need to listen so closely more than ever.

People: The third trifecta in this puzzle maximizes impact within the organization in order to impact externally.

As we redefine our organizational culture and its values and behaviors, our company's culture should offer critical engagement factors too. Because these factors impact talent management components that are the most affected during current times: recruitment, retention, and development.

Truly human leadership protects an organization from the internal rivalries that can shatter a culture. When we have to protect ourselves from each other, the whole organization suffers. But when trust and cooperation thrive internally, we pull together and the organization grows stronger as a result. ~ Simon Sinek

For organizations to thrive internally, leadership-centric culture will not only attract but also retain their talent by partnering with them through every stage of their career. And trust is a fundamental stepping stone in the process.

In conclusion, however obvious it must be organizational culture with effective leadership is a must-have for every organization to attract and retain their biggest asset: their people.

At the end of the day, talent may hear our words, but they absorb and mimic our attitude.
