This week, we explore what happens after the vision is set and before the path forward becomes clear: the messy middle of strategy.

Why do we as leaders get stuck between knowing where we want to go and actually getting there?

The tension between strategy and execution is murky water, and the path to growth often requires more than a good plan. Sometimes the hardest part isn't deciding what you want for the future. It's committing to what it will take to get there.

Leadership Transformation Program

Learn about how to develop YOUR ag leaders by scheduling time with the People Spark ® team. 96% of employees want feedback – constructive OR recognition. Yet another survey found that only 5% of managers provide critical feedback to employees – even though it’s important for their development. Nearly half of managers (44%) find giving feedback stressful. Nearly a quarter (21%) avoid giving it altogether.

Our leadership transformation program was designed to be straightforward and practical, providing content in digestible chunks, supporting participants through personalized feedback, and providing participants an environment to learn with other ag leaders across the country.

In many instances, managers just aren’t comfortable with WHAT to do, let alone HOW to do it. They feel it’s uncomfortable, they don’t want to demotivate employees and just aren’t sure how to do it. And the repercussions of NOT giving feedback end up impacting you and your business – through lower productivity and profitability, decreased employee engagement, and increased employee turnover.
