What is the key to establishing a rhythm that empowers the team?

60:27

So, a great question.Let's say that part of the evolution in managing teams is also discovering what is the best way to bring out the best potential in people.

60:43

This may not be the primary concern, because there are other factors to consider.

60:48

Objectives, targets to be achieved, a result, and then you focus very much on what needs to be done without taking time to reflect.

61:01

I obviously made this mistake, so I threw myself towards goals and then over time, one makes certain mistakes and reconsiders.

61:10

And one of these mistakes that I may have made is this. In the transformation that I have undergone in the same company, moving from various roles, I became very familiar with micro work, detail work.

61:23

Attention to detail is obviously positive because it allows you to communicate,to interact with your teams based on your knowledge of what the job entails fundamentally, but at the same time it is to focus on the details and let the teams soar.

61:38

So you have to find the right balance between being in the micro, or at least be familiar with micro, but leave room for the teams to breathe and help them with the other point, which is the macro, so a more strategic part,then introduce them to that which is most relevant to their goals:corporate values, why things are done, not so much what we are doing, but why, what is the objective, and what we want to achieve?

62:04

And this at the same time allows visibility, we must help them to give their best, knowing what they can give and what stimulates them the most.

62:13

So, undoubtedly, the right balance between control and autonomy, because neither can be overlooked. In my opinion, that's what makes it all possible:to perform well with encouragement and incentives from the team to evolve.

62:32

And then evolution is undoubtedly fundamental within a company, but you have to also demystify a great taboo.

62:39

Are there companies or roles that allow you to evolve significantly or companies that may not be able to provide it.

62:46

And it's not that the company doesn't know how to provide it, it's simply sometimes it's the law of life.

62:51

So you also have to allow teams, people, when they arrive perhaps at a stage where they are unable to find a way forward within the same company, if they decide to leave and evolve away from there, this also a positive.

63:05

In the sense that, in the end, you have to be happy with what you have.

63:08

That's how it's done, that's my motto.So wake up happy, complete, satisfied.

63:14

If it can be done within the same company, that's fantastic, of course, and retaining talent, believing that talent is important, otherwise they will go elsewhere.

63:23

And that's a good thing.
