Keep Your Tempo
"Running a business is like being an orchestra conductor. How well your people perform is your responsibility. " - Donald J. Trump
Effective leaders develop individual tempos and utilize them. Your tempo is like an inner metronome that constantly keeps time. It should never stop -- even when the world is exploding around you. The people you work with will feel your tempo and plug into it. When they do, everyone will work better together and enjoy it more.
We each have our own internal tempos that govern how quickly we move. It's an integral, distinguishing part of us. Some people are deliberate, contemplative, and reflective. Others, like me, proceed at lightning speed. I think that my speed enables me to do more. It also challenges my people to keep up with me.
My own tempo is fast. When I conduct a meeting, I need those present to keep up with me, to be on the same page. The people who work with me know my pace, and they've adjusted to it. My employees know that I like to work quickly, so they prepare for meetings. We don't waste time, so we move rapidly at my speed.
If you think your tempo is too slow, here are tips to speed it up:
Decide if you're satisfied with your tempo or if you should speed it up or maybe even slow it down.
Look at yourself; see what tempo is natural to you. Become aware of that tempo and how well it works for you.
Monitor the people around you and determine how well they keep up. Plan how you can demonstrate your new tempo to them. Perhaps you could change your pace in increments instead of changing all at once.
Running a business is like being an orchestra conductor. How well your people perform is your responsibility. Direction flows from the top, and you’re the maestro.
