Will

There is an old saying that a willing volunteer is worth ten pressed men. I think that one of the most impactful changes that the world of work has seen over the last half century is the impact that individual desire plays.

In the 21^st Century, choice, individual choice has come to have an ever greater significance. People are more free to choose what they do, how they behave, how they dress and what they look like than ever in our history.

One of the implications and effects of this is that probably the number one factor is any individual’s success and efficacy in the world of work is someone’s desire or will to succeed.

Last week I said “A motivated, inspired individual will out perform a disengaged high flyer every day of the week and a cohesive team of inspired people is virtually unstoppable”.

So the questions for this week are;

• To what degree do I try to evaluate ‘will’ when I am interviewing?
• To what extent do I see my job as a leader as being inspiring?
• To what extent do I see my job as a leader as making sure people are doing what they love and loving what they do?
• How often am I checking with each individual that they are fully engaged?
