This is Why I Focus on Personal Growth of My Team

In the journey from manager to leader, one of the most powerful shifts is learning to focus on the personal growth of your team members. In this episode of The Daily Hint, I dive into why prioritizing your team’s development is essential—not only for individual success but for the growth of the organization as a whole.

As a manager with over 20 years of experience, I’ve seen firsthand that when team members feel supported in their personal and professional development, they become more engaged, motivated, and committed. They approach work with greater enthusiasm, and that translates to higher productivity and a more positive atmosphere.

Helping team members grow also transforms the manager’s role from task-master to leader. It’s about creating a culture where everyone feels valued and empowered. This episode discusses how focusing on personal growth inspires loyalty and helps organizations operate at their highest potential.

Tune in to learn why enabling your team to grow is one of the most effective leadership strategies available and how you, too, can elevate your team’s performance by supporting their personal journeys.

Transcript:

As a manager, the number one responsibility for me is enabling my team members to grow. If I enable my team members to grow, which I have done over the last 20 years of being a manager in different organizations, the team will speed up and the organization will benefit. And the only reason for that is that the person that I support to grow will feel it and through that will work more happily, is more engaged, and loves to work with me.

The team and the organization. It's all about helping people to grow as a manager because then you step up to be a leader, we should all be leaders and empowering and enabling people to grow.
