Motivated and committed teams are the key to success.

Nothing great was

ever achieved

without enthusiasm.

– Ralph Waldo Emerson

Page 5: Leadership Principles for High Impact Results by Peggy Klingel

Leaders set the stage.

• Leaders need to pace themselves before they pace the team.

• High achievers in all roles are more likely to push themselves too far.

• Leaders telegraph how the vision will be achieved through their words and their actions.

• Team members watch the leader to understand acceptable behaviors.

• Leaders unaware of their effect on teams risk losing team engagement.

• A leader’s commitment to maintaining their own optimal performance sets the stage for similar team member behaviors.

The speed

of the leader

determines the

rate of the pack.

- D. Wayne Lukas

You’ve probably

heard:

Page 8: Leadership Principles for High Impact Results by Peggy Klingel

What’s important to note is:

When change needs to happen

the existing pace often

needs to accelerate.

• Physical exhaustion.

• Emotional exhaustion.

• Cynicism and being critical of others.

• Detachment and dissatisfaction with the job.

• Irritability and impatience.

• Too much sleep or insomnia.

• Change in eating habits.

• Inability to concentrate.

Pace impacts results.

If the pace is too slow, the

team misses the window for

success and the strategy fails.

Pace impacts results.

If the pace is too fast, the

team cannot keep up and the

strategy is not executed.

If the pace is too slow, the

team misses the window for

success and the strategy fails.

How does a leader know the optimal pace?

They Communicate: Leaders explain the vision and mission so team members can join the cause.

They Care: Leaders develop relationships with team members

and demonstrate a genuine interest in them.

They Listen: Leaders seek team input, ask questions and listen to

feedback.

They Act: Leaders lead by making decisions and taking action

based on what they learn.

Leaders achieve the optimal pace by focusing on the team

and delivering on the mission.
