Are you a leader striving to align your professional success with a positive impact on your team and organisation? Imagine steering a ship not only through calm waters but turbulent storms, ensuring that every crew member feels valued and motivated. Balancing these dual goals of “doing good” and “doing well” might sound challenging, but that’s where the Positive Leadership Action Framework comes into play.
This framework offers actionable insights to create an inclusive and encouraging work environment while facilitating personal and team growth. Leadership transcends titles; it’s about setting examples through virtues, making wise decisions amidst uncertainties, and fostering a workspace where everyone can thrive together.
But what does doing good and doing well mean in this context?
Doing good refers to sparking positive assumptions among your team, inspiring them both on a personal and professional level and creating a balance between positivity in formal and informal settings at work. On the other hand, doing well is about making a difference in the workplace as a leader. You do this by fostering your personal development, practising virtues and developing practical wisdom – all to provide your team with a roadmap to a common good and lead your organisation towards excellence.
