A clear destination is a critical aspect of effective leadership. But vision (the “where”) is only half the equation. Tactical oversight (the “how”) ensures everyone knows their role in the process. This is often challenging for servant leaders who communicate vision well. They’re tempted to leave the details to someone else. But servant leaders consistently reinforce the objective so everyone has clarity through each phase of the performance cycle.
When the leader provides clear direction for each person, the team can move forward with confidence and clarity.
