Dear ladies and gentlemen,

this is the second part of our series for new leaders. We have asked Rüdiger Tesar, certified management trainer und Managing Partner at MDI, for the requirements of a successful change of leader.

Am I on the right way?

Rüdiger 2.1

 

„Rüdiger, in the first part of our series, we focused on the first 100 days. What is important after that, from your point of view?”

Rüdiger:

„After the first phase of growing into the new role, from my point of view, it is important to reconcile. Clear values and objectives guide and lead me as a leader. After these 100 days, you should pause for a moment and check whether you are on the right way – and, if necessary, adjust it.”

 

 

The difference between leadership and management

Rüdiger 2.2

„For a long time, there has been a distinction between leadership and management. What can you tell us about it?”

Rüdiger:

„I think that a good leader needs both competences. Accoding to task, company and team, a leader decides which of these two competences is needed. Leadership means inspiring people with visions, and then – as a manager – you implement these visions with the respective processes and structures in the organization.”

Empowerment

Rüdiger 2.4

 

 

 

„Could you name one of the fundamental tasks of a leader?”

Rüdiger:

„Developing employees. It is through empowerment that I enable them to follow their own way and take autonomous decisions… In a way that they might become even better than me”!
