What is Leadership Brand?
Leadership brands help execs become far more deliberate, focused about the way they lead. We all thrive in environments with leaders who inspire us – and every leader has a Leadership Brand, cultivated or not.
The Higher Mix consultants are showing snr. leaders how to fully understand the value (and drawbacks) to their own Leadership Brand and Style. Founded on a leader’s identity, Leadership Brand is the culmination of innate strengths, emotional health and distinctiveness. The distinct set of talents, uniquely geared to fulfilling the expectations of internal and external stakeholders. Managing quality interactions, with self and others.
These services guide and facilitate (advertise) what’s particularly powerful and effective about your leadership; bring to the fore the key attributes and qualities, and maneuver to generate more value.
The Higher Mix has respected organisational psychologists and leadership specialists who will provide you with a safe environment to address challenges, capitalise on your talents and influence more widely.
Leadership Brand Constructs
This process balances qualities which come naturally in a person with those that are critical in existing roles, or new positions. So leaders understand which of their traits to add to their leadership brand stable, which to exhibit, that hold the most promise to take you further forward, into next level roles.
Important part of defining leadership brand is what’s expected of them as a leader as well. Likewise, what they want to be known for? How their own brand is to be portrayed (Collaborative? Independent? Innovative? Strategic?) Put a leader with the wrong leadership brand (style), into a position which requires a totally different skill set and style, and you can seriously compromise their work success and impact.
Living Leadership Brand (The Real Deal)
Organisations with a strong, resilient connection between external brand and customer experience achieve that, usually through leadership development. So often relayed, generic training and development creates ‘generic leaders’ – leadership brand involves far more individualized approach to leadership training that prevents this sort of genericity.
The Higher Mix works with Leaders on their leadership brands – keeping them focused on results (on their customers, team, investors and the organisation). What they need and want to achieve in coming year.
Espoused (but not lived) brands create cynicism – authentic leadership branding is based on evidence; findings from leader’s own assessment (resonating the kind of leader they are, and kind they want to be.) Brand identity to best represent “who I am and what I can do” Defining our own identity as a leader, producing interesting descriptions, experimenting to crystallise it.
Leadership brand statements are usually tested for relevance; and authenticity with colleagues too – does it create real value in the eyes of the organisation and key stakeholders? What about risks to your exhibiting this brand? What’s the impact?
Like all brands it isn’t static. Leaders live it, embody it in the day-to-day, staying on top of their leadership brand by inviting discreet, relevant feedback (as to how they are evolving as a leader?)
