Great leaders, like skilled military commanders, prioritize sharing the situation and purpose behind every new project. They understand that knowledge empowers. By detailing the context and the “why” behind the “what,” leaders equip their teams with more than just orders—they provide insight and motivation.
Great performance coaches explain the bigger situation behind every new project.
Consider an upcoming project or task. What is the broader situation that makes this assignment significant? How can you share this context with your team in a way that resonates and inspires?
