Welcome to Monday everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. Today’s topic was based on a post I read on LinkedIn on Friday. It talked about owning something that no one is owning is the fastest way to accelerate your career growth in a startup.
This is an interesting topic, in a startup, anything someone else isn’t owning can accelerate your career growth...but at a larger organization isn’t not that black and white.
As a leader it’s important to balance the needs of the company to get things done and your people’s goals and strengths. It’s easy to find things to do and own outside of typical job responsibilities for anyone. The key is putting them in a space where they can be successful, not that it will be easy, not they won’t have to grow and push themselves. More that the extra effort will pay off in their career growth and development.
Too many leaders just pick random things that need done and throw them at people looking to push themselves. A leaders job is to find the opportunities that align to a direct reports wants, goals and path they are on. It’s also important to make sure that you are monitoring how this opportunity could and does impact their actual job. If someone picks up extra opportunities but ends up dropping the ball in their job, then you put them in a bad spot.
If it doesn’t help their career growth, then you shouldn’t ask them to do it. If they are asking to do it, explain to them why it won’t help their career in the way they think it would. If they insist, sometimes, you need to tell them no, sometimes the growth they need lies in understanding why that opportunity isn’t right, and that growth lies in going through the process of struggling through.
This isn’t an easy conversation and it’s hard to see the right path all the time. Do your best, admit your mistakes and don’t be afraid to pivot. Just own when you made a mistake.
Hope this helps! Have a great week! Take care of yourselves and your people.
