Leaders and managers who very often share information with others are also more
collaborative and are twice as likely to quickly try and resolve conflict before it escalates
collaborative and are twice as likely to quickly try and resolve conflict before it escalates
My research shows that leaders and managers who
very often share information with employees are also
far more likely to be collaborative, to quickly resolve
conflict, and give credit where it's due than leaders who
often share information with others.
The subtle difference in wording between "often" and
"very often" can leave some to believe that improving
personal leadership styles even to a small degree won't
make much difference. Well, my original research shows
it can make a huge difference!
Just like the analogy of a butterfly flapping its wings in
South America creating a thunderstorm in Texas, our
research shows that one small action can easily create a
ripple effect of positive outcomes.
But my research also shows two interesting anomalies.
Leaders in our study who were great
information-sharers didn't achieve any better work and
personal life balance, and they weren't likely to
challenge the status quo more than those who often
shared information. I'll have more on this in a later
report.
