Читать книгу Leading from the Middle - Scott Mautz - Страница 34

The effective leader in the middle champions ideas they believe in up, down, and across the organization, helping them to fruition.

The Role Play: The key here is to act as an active sponsor, not a passive fan of the initiative. True champions of an initiative or idea roll their sleeves up to help. They bring in allies for support, help overcome detractors, and tout the initiative's benefits while helping identify weaknesses to be shored up. Champions are in a unique position to help an initiative team see around corners and anticipate barriers. Use that power to aid progress.
