In business, there are the questions that seem obvious but are anything but. One of those questions is "Who do I serve?" It is rarely as simple as it seems.
Over the past three years, I've been serving leaders and teams inside organizations, while enjoying the comraderie and discussion here on the Enlightened Manager.
One of the things I've realized is that there are a lot of leaders in the world who are left to struggle internally with little support from their organizations. For every leader with a fantastic mentor and resources, there are twenty trying to make it on their own. Many of you are swimming against the tide, trying to do the "right things" in a corporate world that seems weird and adversarial. I continue to be heartened and impressed by the leaders who email me from this blog, telling me about their struggles and experiences. Your stories help me learn, and light a fire that keeps me writing, and I thank you for that.
So I come back to that question of "Who do I serve?" And for the leaders who come here because they're looking to better themselves and their teams, I say I'm here to serve you. And to acknowledge this, I'm redesigning this website with you in mind.
What you'll find at the new Emergenceconsulting.net:
- More free leader tools available for instant download. (No waiting.)
- A cleaner and more interactive user interface.
- More content, uploaded more frequently.
- Downloadable teambuilding and coaching kits written in plain language.
- Access to content-rich subscriptions, such as weekly leadership workouts, that build your skills at a nominal cost.
Here is my question for you. What would YOU like to see here? What kinds of content or resources would get you where you need to go on your leadership journey? I'd love to hear.
PS: The site is under construction, with a tentative launch date in August. Stay tuned!
