Managing the Boundaries of Initiative at Work

Download to read offline

Do your team members know the extent and limits of the boundaries for them to display their initiative to get the work done?

This might be dealing with customers, stakeholders, prioritizing their work, or designing better ways to complete their work.

If people are unsure of their boundaries, they freeze and do nothing except become reactive.

Communicating the boundaries of when initiative is welcome, and when it is not, creates a sense of psychological safety for people at work to be empowered.

This presentation explores what the leader needs to do (and not do) to develop these boundaries and the expectations necessary for independent judgment to flourish.
