At the core of a top functioning team is the well-being of every one of its members — and that includes the leadership, too. Often, as leaders, we work longer hours than others to get it all done and we expect high-quality results from everyone. It’s smart to take a beat and role-model what well-being looks like so that your team sees that you promote it and it is important. That means taking a pause now and then to reflect on other perspectives, and trying to demonstrate a healthy life-work balance to your team so they feel comfortable doing the same. Open communication about individual circumstances that arise and guilt-free time off are keys to ensuring your team’s well-being.
A great leader promotes their team’s well-being by being a role model.
