The Meeting With Senior Leadership
By Jeff Altman, The Big Game Hunter
A client contacted me for help with a problem. He ran a part of the business and it seemed like he lost the trust of the senior leaders. He was invited to a meeting with them on short notice where he was asked to come in with ideas for how the firm could accomplish its goals for the year.
After a few minutes of complaining, we switched gears and spoke about solutions, how leadership was contributing to the issues but he couldn’t confront that directly. He could do it indirectly.
I encouraged him to present from the whiteboard to present command and authority.
When one of the owners took a shot at him, he responded by saying, “Great idea! I’m glad we’re working together to get results.”
Sometimes issues surface that are not about the topic. They are really about #trust.
