6. Delivering outcomes

For many of us, the image of the courageous leader has overtones of physical action. The platoon sergeant taking troops forward under fire. The explorer leading a team through the jungle. Or, a sports captain rousing their players as they run onto the field.

In businesses, leaders seldom see such physical action. But this doesn't lessen the need to be upfront: showing the way - and demonstrating courage. Equally, there are times to be within the group, ensuring everyone's OK; finding out what they're thinking and feeling; giving encouragement. But, at critical moments, someone has to lead - whether representing the organisation in negotiations, presenting a case to the board or disposing of under-performing assets. Even seemingly ordinary activities can require conviction and courage. That's what this Action Pack is about.

What you will learn to do

• Push execution and follow-up - to completion
• Take charge and support others in doing the same
• Find and fix key commercial problems
• Take tough decisions re activities and people

Core message: get things done.

Who is this for?

This Action Pack will be valuable if you need to lift technical or commercial outcomes from your business or area. All of us get behind at times: energy decreases, standards slip, margins erode, deliveries are late. I've had this problem and know that catching up is tough. But, its preferable to losing your performance rating - or worse, your job.

What is included?

As with each of our nine thematic Action Packs, this one contains a total of seven articles. Four address specific aspects of DELIVERING OUTCOMES - with action suggestions, check-up questions, etc. Three shorter ones provide more general background and checklists. Above all, there's a format for the creation of your own action plan.
