Turn Your Desk Around: A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman
1.
Turn Your Desk
Around When I was preparing to leave my job managing over 80 people, an employee stopped by my office to say goodbye. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
2.
Turn Your Desk
Around He said, “Jon when you became the boss, I was impressed with something you did.” A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
3.
Turn Your Desk
Around Who doesn’t love a compliment? So I gladly prepared to welcome his thoughts. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
4.
Turn Your Desk
Around Maybe he’s going to talk about how we accomplished record-breaking goals. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
5.
Turn Your Desk
Around Maybe he’s going to comment on one of the many initiatives we started. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
6.
Turn Your Desk
Around Maybe he’s going to talk about the first-of-its-kind national conference we put on. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
7.
Turn Your Desk
Around He did not mention any of these things. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
8.
Turn Your Desk
Around Instead, he said, “When you came onboard and reorganized your office, the first thing you did was turn your desk around so that your back would not face the door.” A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
9.
Turn Your Desk
Around What???!!! I thought to myself, “Out of all the things we accomplished, he’s talking about the arrangement of furniture? A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
10.
Turn Your Desk
Around Is he kidding? Maybe he would be equally impressed with the color of my office chairs. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
11.
Turn Your Desk
Around And – hey – I’m not even going to mention the quality of my stapler. Once he realized that, he would be floored!” A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
12.
Turn Your Desk
Around After I stopped being silly, I became surprised that he remembered something so small that occurred three years ago. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
13.
Turn Your Desk
Around He then explained how that one small act showed him that I cared about people. To him (and I’m sure to other employees as well) this represented respect. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
14.
Turn Your Desk
Around It ensured that employees would see my face – as opposed to my back – whenever they dropped by my office or were merely walking by it. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
15.
Turn Your Desk
Around While turning my desk around did not mean a lot to me, that one small act meant everything to him. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
16.
Turn Your Desk
Around This experience taught me a powerful leadership principle. One of the first things leaders should do is show their team members that they care about them. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
17.
Turn Your Desk
Around I’m not talking about feigning concern. I’m talking about a true, genuine regard for humanity and an ardent respect for your team. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
18.
Turn Your Desk
Around Every act, no matter how small, can go a long way in accomplishing this. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
19.
Turn Your Desk
Around (CEOs and other executives, here is a tip: Avoid promoting someone into a leadership role solely because they are good at their job. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
20.
Turn Your Desk
Around In addition to competence, look for those who have displayed leadership qualities, including a genuine concern for their colleagues). A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
21.
Turn Your Desk
Around Yes, you too may need to “turn your desk around.” A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
22.
Turn Your Desk
Around To you, this may mean smiling to your employees more often. Maybe it means asking them how they are doing and listening to their responses. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
23.
Turn Your Desk
Around Maybe “turning your desk around” means stopping by their office or cubicle just to say hello. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
24.
Turn Your Desk
Around Maybe it means placing a thank you note on their desk for a job well done. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
25.
Turn Your Desk
Around Maybe it means volunteering to make restaurant reservations for their upcoming birthday lunch with a friend. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
26.
Turn Your Desk
Around If you want your team to accomplish great things, you must first show them that you truly care. A short leadership story by Jonathan Michael Bowman © 2013 Clear Picture Leadership® All rights reserved.
