What often surfaces is the topic of collaborative leadership. What it is and why it is so important when coming out of the pandemic is at the top of many CEO&#8217;s minds.<\/p>\n<p>What I have learned is that many organizations have undergone a metamorphosis of some form to survive.\u00a0 The transformation may come in varying ways:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A pivot to a wholly digital platform;<\/li>\n<li>Zeroing in on digital communications;<\/li>\n<li>Gambling on a new business model; or perhaps,<\/li>\n<li>Finding ways and means to engage employees more effectively.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As a result, a new breed of leaders is now in such high demand. Executive searches report an uptick in C-suite or executive level roles to meet organizations\u2019 changing needs.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the CEO, COO, and CFOs, plum (and in-demand) positions now include \u201cChief Talent and Culture Officer\u201d, as well as \u201cChief Information Security Officer\u201d.\u00a0 These positions were rarely heard of pre-pandemic.\u00a0 In fact, these were often the subject of laughable memes in the same category as Chief Chatter (Call Center Manager), People Partner (Customer Service Head), and Chief Geek (Chief Technology Officer).<\/p>\n<h3>But turns out, the joke\u2019s on us and collaborative leadership is here to stay.<\/h3>\n<p>These are job positions that we need now more than ever.\u00a0 In the past 12 months, the above positions, together with frontline e-commerce workers, personal shoppers, fulfillment specialists, delivery drivers, health-care support staff, nurses, and digital marketing professionals have been in extraordinarily high demand.\u00a0 This shows a radical shift from tech jobs to <strong>human-centric<\/strong> roles to cater to new and critical needs brought about by the pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>So, yes.\u00a0 We do need a People Partner (Customer Service Head), or even an Employee Experience Designer (Candidate Experience Manager for post-hiring purposes).<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>What the last year taught me is that business and organizational leaders now recognize the need <\/strong><strong>for <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>forward-thinking executives\u00a0<\/strong><strong>with the aptitude for collaboration\u00a0<\/strong><strong>\u2013 someone who can focus on work culture, <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>while at the same time empowering a diverse workforce\u00a0<\/strong><strong>(who now work on-site and off-site).<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>How TIGERS<strong><em>\u00ae<\/em><\/strong> defines collaborative leadership<\/h3>\n<p>To be candid, it may seem like the pandemic has brought about the demand for demi-gods or unicorns. \u00a0But that might as well be true.\u00a0 Organizations that have managed to weather crises, economic or otherwise, are those that possess collaborative leadership and high employee engagement.\u00a0 Collaborative Leadership is a management mindset with the aim of bringing team members, leaders, managers, and executives together.\u00a0 In lieu of a top-down management style, collaborative leadership encourages access to information, a sharing of perspectives, and taking collective responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>In brief, it\u2019s the type of leadership where everyone is actively involved.\u00a0\u00a0 Relevant ideas are shared without judgment because psychological safety for employees is taken very seriously. Thus, the work moves forward.\u00a0 The magic happens when every team member grasps what\u2019s happening in other departments.\u00a0 They recognize their purpose in the grand scheme. And this paves the way for elite cross-functional teams that produce agile outcomes for planning execution, innovation, change and system-wide problem solving.<\/p>\n<p>One very apparent benefit of having collaborative leadership in the workplace is an expeditious response to crisis.\u00a0 Those in the know are heard and as a result, decision-making becomes effective and responsive and not a pink slip surprise for some when candid conversations could have kept trust high and options open.<\/p>\n<p>This is the type of competency that can spell the difference between closing shop and surviving.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Get your organization working as a team with the TIGERS<strong>\u00ae<\/strong> Collaboration Course<\/h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.corevalues.com\/courses\/collaboration\">TIGERS Collaborative<\/a> Leader Course recognizes the needs of a rapidly changing workplace.\u00a0 The pandemic, for instance, calls for leadership that is more outcome-focused than directive.
