Welcome to another episode of the Leadership Toolkit! Join host Mike Phillips as he engages in an insightful conversation with Dr. Rob Lion, a master in transforming workplace cultures. With his extensive background in leadership and consulting, Dr. Rob shares strategies for enhancing employee engagement, diagnosing performance issues, and creating thriving teams. Whether you're a seasoned leader or just starting out, Dr. Rob offers valuable tools and perspectives that can help you navigate the complexities of leadership in today’s business landscape.


I love what Dr. Rob Lion shared on the three vital aspects of leadership that, when addressed, can significantly cultivate an advanced company culture.


1️⃣ Competency: Are your team members confident in their skills? If not, competency development must occur to facilitate both their growth and the organization's success.

2️⃣ Autonomy: Empowering individuals at work inspires creativity and ownership of tasks that lead to higher engagement levels. How can you delegate effectively to allow your team to lead portions of the project?

3️⃣ Relatedness: Encourage connections among coworkers, creating a supportive network where individuals feel safe sharing insights and concerns. What initiatives can you adopt to promote team bonding?


When connecting with your people, have you checked their CAR?
