Tailor Leadership to Team Needs

Assess the team's development. Evaluate the current stage of team maturity by monitoring productivity and morale.

Determine leadership style. Match your approach (structuring, resolving, integrating, or validating) to the team’s stage.

Communicate expectations. Clearly state goals and roles based on the developmental need.

Provide appropriate support. Offer more directive behavior when needed and gradually shift to delegation as competence grows.

Monitor and recalibrate. Regularly check team dynamics and adjust your style to keep teams moving towards high performance.
