| FROM Kelley MBA Blog: 10 Insights on Inspirational Leadership |
 Introducing a new guest blogger: Scott Mautz, MBA’94. Mautz is an award winning keynote speaker and 20+ year veteran of Procter & Gamble, where he currently runs the company's largest, multi-billion dollar business. He is also the author of the book Make It Matter: How Managers Can Motivate by Creating Meaning, which has been recently nominated for "Leadership Book of the Year" by Leadership & Management Books. Help Scott advance to the finals by casting your vote for "Make It Matter" by February 15.  Scott Mautz Marketing Manager, Proctor and Gamble Start your 2016 leadership campaign with a sense of renewal by considering the following question: Is inspirational leadership the holy grail of leadership? Well, I define such a pinnacle – the holy grail of leadership – as that which engenders the highest levels of employee engagement and commitment. So, by that definition, then yes, hands down, inspirational leadership is the summit. And your employees would agree with me. A major study examined a half million employees and their assessment of 50,000 leaders in terms of 16 core leadership competencies. The outcome of the study showed that the ability to inspire “is what most powerfully separates the most effective leaders from the average and least-effective leaders. And it is the factor most subordinates identify when asked what they would most like to have in their leader.”1 A pursuit worth the effort - but then you probably didn’t need a study to tell you that. We all know how it feels when we are around an inspirational leader. Inspirational leaders spur the expenditure of discretionary energy. You feel uplifted. The power of possibility surges through you. You might even physically get the tingles as you are reminded and reinvigorated about what could lie ahead and why you are doing what you are. You feel connected to the mission, to the leader, to others, and to your work. You feel worthy, and worthwhile. You aim higher and try harder. You feel compelled to take action. You can trigger this response. www.makeitmatterbook.com. |
