For those of you that like to work while on the move or from remote locations, the variety of digital tools at our disposal are endless. With just a laptop or a smart phone, you can travel to some of the most remote regions on earth and still be able to start-up, run and control your business empire, just as easily as if you were sitting in your own office. Today there seems to be a digital tool for almost every leadership function or action. However, despite these amazing advances in technology, just like with any tool put them in the wrong hands and they can easily be abused. Leading remotely is a fantastic opportunity but the last thing you ever want to do is make your customers or colleagues feel neglected.
When we work with different leaders at Think Do & Grow, we put a lot of focus on the professional relationships between individuals. A leader who knows his/her team, if they have gone through the correct thought processes and procedures, will know exactly what digital tools will be appreciated and also which ones will be most beneficial. The leader who isolates themselves from the team runs the risks of only choosing tools that serve their own interests, and this can often cause problems further down the line. The question “will it make life easier for our customers and employees?” should always come before the question “will it make life easier for myself?” At Think Do & Grow we might not be able to help you choose the best digital tool for your company, but we can certainly help you go through the right thought processes so that you can make a balanced and structured decision that is best for everyone.
