Winning well for me is…
Seeing employees learn, grow and “leave the nest” to lead their own team. Nothing makes me look more like a winner.
Jordan, what a rewarding experience that is – Winning Well indeed!
Jordan, oh, I love that feeling! I was talking to a man at our book signing yesterday who was saying a similar thing. His goal was to help his direct reports become his peer. I thought that was a fun way to think of it too.
Winning Well for me is… when the leaders and managers we work with say “I can do that!” – and then they do.
Dan, thank you for a wonderful interview. It was a shared pleasure to spend that time together and hear your insights!
Dan, You exemplify Winning Well by the way you consistently give of yourself and you insights to help leaders grow. Thank you so much for your insights, support and friendship.
Winning well for me is earning the respect of my colleagues who view me as a valuable resource,
Winning well for me is…
Mentoring someone on your team to replace you as a leader. I have done this several times and what a joy it is to see someone do your job as well or even I would say better than I did it.
Jerry, that truly is a joy, isn’t it? Early in my career I was told that our number one job as a leader is to build our replacement. That’s Winning Well – how cool is it when they exceed us!
I truly enjoy the replies above; I believe this sentiment is one of the nicest rewards of winning well and I have been privy to this honor myself. To be honest, it is the silent victories (for me) that tell me I am on the good path of winning well. On occasion I must deal with an unhappy colleague, a person that brings the mindset of ‘not going to be happy’ no matter what and seems to use the same excuse. I have had to step back and look for the different perspective, not take it personally, and move beyond it, quickly.
I use this example as winning well because I did not ‘lose self’ in another person’s journey. Thanks for your time, I look forward to reading your book.
Melanie, thank you for sharing another great example of Winning Well. Those times when we remember that we choose our reactions and how we will treat the people around us, that no one chooses it for us… those are powerful moments of Winning Well.
Appreciate the contribution!
