Set people free

Robin Sharma

Sept.11 : The best leaders turn their teammates loose. They clearly communicate the vision, coach and develop their people and, once done, set them free. Free to use their own creativity and ingenuity to get the results needed. Free to do excellent work and find splendid solutions. Free to feel what it’s like to succeed. And free to fail, because making mistakes is part of getting to success.

People want to be a part of an organisation that lets them bring their gifts to work and be fully alive. People want to be engaged and feel proud of their contribution. At the deepest level, each of us aches to know the work we do — and the lives we lead — make a difference. Will you let the people around you realise this longing by setting them free? Because if you don’t someone else will.
