Stop Pushing Start Pulling: A Balanced Approach to Leadership in ISO Management Systems
Lead the Standard
Join us as we explore the dynamic leadership strategies that drive successful ISO Management Systems. Hosts Jackie Stapleton and Kelly Taylor break down the Push and Pull Leadership Model, inspired by LTS Newsletter #61 (https://email.auditortrainingonline.com/lead-the-standard-ed-61), focusing on four key forces that influence leadership outcomes:
• Push: Clear Directions and Control
• Pull: Inspiration and Guidance
• Support: Assistance and Oversight
• Empowerment: Authority and Confidence
Discover how balancing these elements can transform your leadership approach, fostering creativity and ownership while maintaining clarity and control. We'll discuss practical strategies to enhance leadership effectiveness and avoid common pitfalls that can stifle innovation or lead to inconsistency.
Tune in for engaging discussions, insightful stories, and a live Q&A session with our ATOL Community. Whether you're implementing an ISO Management System or looking to refine your leadership style, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable takeaways.
