How Do You Measure Success as a Leader | The Leadership Growth Podcast
As a consultant and coach, Lorraine Armijos, founder of LAR Insights, has observed many leaders struggle to respond when she asks how they measure success.
The first response, she says, “is just a blank stare.” Some leaders gauge success entirely on revenue numbers. And finally, many leaders give a “laundry list of things.”
“It’s really important to start with what problem you’re trying to solve,” says Lorraine. “From there on, start creating that alignment through each layer” of the organization.
In this conversation with Daniel and Peter, Lorraine discusses the elements of leadership success and offers practical advice on how to focus on, collect, and measure the right data.
Tune in to learn:
The three intangible measures of leadership success
The slightly unconventional advice Lorraine offers for collecting data
The one thing all leaders should remember when deciding where to focus their efforts
Ultimately, says Lorraine, leaders need to focus on the things that are within their control. “At every level of the organization, you will have a different level of control,” she says. “Make sure you are focusing on that, because otherwise, it’ll just be frustrating for you.”
