Grow & Let Others Grow - by Navrang

Offlate I was thinking about how you grow within organisation & how you let others grow.

I thought on various aspects & came up with very interesting conclusions.

Bottom line is Stick to basics. Isn't it very basic & interesting point :-)

There are so many Gyan around about how you can grow but hardly anyone stick to that. Ok let me try writing in points;

1. Enabling others - As per my understanding, letting others grow is Extremely important, which you can do by Enabling your juniors/peers. Let them know what you do, how you do a particular task. This will make them happy as they will have interest in doing new work, in turn it will increse their productivity.
Happy ppl, better productivity. :-)

Not only that after sometime you will find lot of time to concentrate on other important / new task. In turn better productivity for yourself as well :-)

I don't think it's something really Enlightening, it's very Basic and everyone know it well, it's just a matter whether you do it or not.

2. Making others grow is not @all a simple task. It's not you rather others who should be ready to grow. For that recognizing Real Strength of your colleagues is also very important. A person not doing well in one role not neccessarily is wrong one but rather s/he may be at wrong place/role. Try working out something really of interest to him/her. Be assured; in long run productivity will be much better, also loyality/commitment will increase.

This is my opinion, would love to know yours. Appreciate your comment.

When everyone is hunger for success and everyone want to beat every person on the way. It bring some insecurities to people who is sharing knowledge and let everyone to grow.

But yes faith and hope living in the person who leads the team as a complete unit and some unseen battles need to fought to drive the success to team. But its not simple anymore. At time you need to decide very real time for future success & growth.

But yes Grow & Let Others Grow help if you have the survival and killer instincts with in you. You can do for yourself and organization.
These are some of signs of a True Leader :)

absolutely agree with you.

Having said that..life is pretty simple but we make it complicated so still we the option of making it simple.

if you want to make others grow then try to create circumstances where their abilities are put to test and if they show interest then motivate them :)
