The New Manager Podcast

181. Leadership Lessons from the Olympics

Listen Later

What can a new manager learn about leadership by watching the Olympics? Plenty! Three lessons that will help you be more effective in managing your team:

  1. Powerful teams have diverse strengths. Get curious about the strengths on your team -- in yourself.
  2. Excellence doesn't look one way. So don't compare yourself to others and assume your leadership style has to like theirs.
  3. Have fun and celebrate! You can work hard and enjoy yourself along the way. Celebration helps boost connection and appreciation. Look beyond your team, to others in your org and professional ecosystem.
