Supervisors' Connections
Strengths-based Management Styles
As a manager, what do you notice when you focus in on the people that work for you?
Think of your mental checklist as you scan for how things are going at work…do you
see any issues or problems that rise to the level where you need to say or do something,
to keep things on track? Wait – I thought you were focused in on the people that work
for you? What they do wrong or could do better for sure, but equally, are you looking
for what they do and say that adds value and is good (or great) about their work?
Strengths-based management is when you notice how people and teams are using their
talents & strengths to deliver positive outcomes and impact. Being able to speak openly
about the talents & strengths you see, and to offer insight, feedback, and coaching
that encourages the growth of these strengths and capacity to use them even more at
work is the most significant impact you’ll ever have as a manager (and leader). Where
do you want to spend most of your time at work: looking for employee’s problems or
growing their talents into strengths?
Workshop Takeaways
- Understand a strengths-based engagement and performance framework and gain fluency
speaking about talents
- See ‘both sides’ of workplace performance, and how outcomes and impact distribute over a range
- Explore positive ways to discuss work expectations, and how to give feedback and coaching on talents & strengths
- Learn the exponential ROI of building strengths-based working relationships and partnerships on teams
- Build personal self-awareness by identifying talents & strengths that show up often for you, both professionally and publicly
- Receive resources, tools, and worksheets that you can use to start having strengths-based conversations in your workplace
