Leadership and Follow Up
By Michael | October 9, 2009
| “Most people don’t follow up very well, if at all. Good follow-up alone elevates you above 95 percent of your peers. The follow-up is the hammer and nails of your networking tool kit. In fact, FOLLOW-UP IS THE KEY TO SUCCESS IN ANY FIELD. - Keith Ferrazzi Do you consistently follow-up? As a leader in an organization this could entail many things. You could follow-up on project tasks, goal achievement, new hires, promoted individuals and delegated assignments. |
Keith Ferrazzi recommends following up within twelve to twenty-four hours after you meet someone new.
If you meet somebody on a plane, send them an e-mail later that day. If you meet somebody over cocktails, send them an e-mail the next morning. He also provides the following tips for flawless follow-up:
Put the name and e-mail address of a new acquaintance in your database and program your calendar to remind you in a month’s time to drop the person another e-mail, just to keep in touch.
Remember-and this is critical-your follow up shouldn’t remind them of what they can do for you. It’s about what you might be able to do for them. It’s about giving them a reason to want to follow up.
Always express your gratitude.
Be sure to include an item of interest from your meeting or conversation-a joke or a shared moment of humor.
Reaffirm whatever commitments you both made-going both ways.
Be brief and to the point.
Always address the thank-you note to the person by name.
Use e-mail and snail mail. The combination adds a personalized touch.
Timeliness is key. Send them as soon as possible after the meeting or interview. Many people wait until the holidays to say thank you or reach out. Why wait? Your follow-ups will be timelier, more appropriate, and certainly better remembered.
Don’t forget to follow up with those who have acted as the go between for you and someone else. Let the original referrer know how the conversation went, and express your appreciation for their help.
“Make follow-up a habit. Make it automatic. When you do, the days of struggling to remember people’s names-and of other people struggling to remember yours-will be a thing of the past”.
How effective are you with following up with your colleagues? With new acquaintances? How effective is your leadership team?
Rate yourself now and start making changes today!
Sincerely,
Michael W. Kublin and Jan Mayer-Rodriguez

Organizational Bench Strength
By Michael | October 1, 2009
| “The key to sustained competitive advantage in any industry is not size, image, or technology. It’s talent, particularly at the leadership level. Your organization’s future depends on its ability to identify, retain, and prepare a dependable “bench”-its next generation of leaders-continuously”. -Dr. Robert W. Barner Did you know that there were 76 million Americans born between 1946 and 1964? Also known as “baby boomers” many organizations are unprepared to lose this pool of talent. According to Arlene Dohm, an economist with the Bureau of Labor Statistics in Washington, D.C. “Baby boomers are going to be retiring in droves starting with the end of this decade”. Have you identified and begun to develop future leaders? Do you have a succession plan in place? Think about your current talent pool. What would the impact be if they were no longer part of your organization? Creating a plan to maintain leadership bench strength is essential to guarantee The best way to begin the development process is by having regular discussions with each employee about their successes, strengths, needs, and aspirations. The Gallup Organization recommends a 3 step process: Ensure each employee has a written development plan and meet regularly (we suggest monthly) with each team member to review the progress against the plan. If you have identified an individual as a future member of your leadership team, verify they have the interest in that position. Assuming you are aligned, assess the unique talents of that individual and update their development plan with actions that include maintaining their strengths and closing the gaps. Next, begin to identify key positions and match the talents of suitable candidates with those positions and determine any further areas to be developed. Is cross training required? Would having a mentor help? Could having a coach speed up the development process? Executive coaching now reaches 43% of CEOs and 71% of the senior executive team and may be attributed to the desire to help successful leaders get even better and organizations achieve desired results. Lastly, meet with your organization’s leadership team and review one another’s succession planning analyses. Agree on business strategies, directions, and critical positions, and identify actual names for those positions. The positions may not need to be filled now, but you will build your bench strength and be positioned to act quickly should you find the need. Leadership talent is one of the most critical needs of any organization. Have you measured your organization’s bench strength lately? If not, we recommend you do it today!

Creating Successful Organizations II
By Michael | September 18, 2009
“Teamplayer: One who unites others toward a shared destiny through sharing information and ideas, empowering others and developing trust.”
- Dennis Kinlaw
Successful organizations know that teamwork is essential to drive results. Does your organization encourage teamwork? Do you personally and as a leader encourage and reward teamwork?
Last week we shared tips on what a successful team is and have been asked “what’s the best way to get started?”
The foundation is to have written (and communicated) vision and mission statements and supporting goals.
For those of you that have attended our Leadership Journey you’ve seen this before but it’s a crucial component for creating successful teams and organizations.
(Click here to find out more about the Leadership Journey)
For leaders and organizations to be successful, they must have:
VISION =
It’s a dream or aspiration that you as the leader have for yourself and your organization. The vision provides direction and guides us to a place far away. It may be unattainable but we can try and focus our attention and make strides for getting there.
MISSION =
Represents what you are going to do and how you’re going to do it to carry out the vision for the organization. It makes the vision come closer to us; it brings the vision alive for us and makes it more personal. The mission begins to bring clarity to our vision.
GOALS =
Bring 100 percent personal clarity to your vision and mission. It requires ACTION. Think in terms of what, when, and how the actions will be carried out, by whom and by when.
Goals must be “SMART”:
-Specific
-Measurable
-Realistic
-Achievable (or actionable)
-Time-bound
Closely linked (and required) are roles and responsibilities. Each team member must clearly understand not only their primary role but also the roles of others. This does not mean roles and responsibilities are not shared, but rather that clarity exists regarding expectations and ownership.
And remember, ALL behaviors and actions both from individual, team and organizational levels must support and be aligned with your vision, mission and goals in order to achieve the highest levels of success.
We’re here to help you increase your team and organizations level of success – contact us today [mailto:mkublin@peopletekcoaching.com]

Michael W. Kublin and Jan Mayer-Rodriguez
