Learn from Dan Bobinski, who draws from 20 years of consulting experience, extensive studies of best practices, and the latest in neuroscience research. You'll learn the principles and methods top managers use to develop passionate, engaged employees who are dedicated to success. You'll be able to:

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

According to TechSci Research report, “India Orthopedic Devices Market -Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030”, the India Orthopedic Devices Market stood at USD 1,280.54 Million in 2024 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 7.84% in the forecast period, 2026-2030F. The India Orthopedic Devices Market is being driven by several factors. The most prominent ones include an increase in the elderly population, who are more prone to orthopedic conditions such as osteoporosis and arthritis. Moreover, the rise in sports injuries and road accidents are also contributing to the demand for orthopedic devices. Advances in technology and the introduction of innovative implants and prosthetics have further propelled the market growth. Additionally, government initiatives aimed at improving healthcare infrastructure and the increasing prevalence of lifestyle diseases have led to an upward trend in orthopedic surgeries, thereby fueling the market demand for these devices.

2. The Problem
Many people within the contact centre industry say that having effective
team leaders is one of the most important factors of a successful
operation
However, the amount of time that organisations spend developing people
in these roles, particularly when they are first appointed, varies greatly in
practice
In organisations where team leader development is given a low priority,
there can be many detrimental impacts on performance.
3. Management Implications
A regular observation in contact centres is that Senior managers in contact centres should

5. Selection
Adair says that the natural or best way of selection is to know and observe the
person over a period of time and in a variety of revealing if not testing situations
Some key areas to consider when selecting new leaders
1. Leadership and teamwork – including energy, enthusiasm and initiative
2. Decision making - problem solving and thinking skills
3. Communication skills – speaking, listening and writing
4. Self management – including time management skills and the ability to organise oneself
5. Personal qualities – including enthusiasm and integrity
John Adair: How to Grow Leaders
6. Training
New leaders selected from internal candidates do not need technical or process
training
They need to start thinking about leadership and to start understanding the
context of their role in the organisation
Recently I was thinking of examples of organisations I have seen that are good at training new team leaders.
An organisation, which I grew to know well in the ambulance service, has a structured approach to training for
newly appointed team leaders. Initially, they send their new team leaders on a short course; two-days over a
month or so. The days concentrate on the role of leadership, leadership styles, what is expected from team
leaders in the performance management framework and effective communication. Participants also discuss
the vision of their organisation, together with some of the core values that are required to be a leader within it.
There are plenty of opportunities for team problem solving and role plays. The days are productive and a good
starting point.
7. Line Managers as Leadership
Mentors
All new team leaders require one-to-one support from line managers as
leadership mentors, particularly in fast changing organisations
They benefit by discussing the situations they are finding in their day-to-day
environment and working through ideas with a more experienced person
Mentors do not solve problems; they step forward, when asked, and provide
resources and help. They do not hover. They monitor results and
measurements, yet serve as a resource to be drawn upon when needed.
Cooper. R. and Ayman S. (1997), Executive EQ
8. The Chance to Lead
Leaders grow by facing and surmounting even more difficult leadership challenges. If
organisations want to grow leaders – or at least create the conditions necessary for
growth – they can do no better than to give potential leaders the chance to lead.
John Adair: How to Grow Leaders
There is limited evidence when working on consultancy assignments of organisations
that implement a successful approach to this issue. Some team leaders gain experience
by working on project teams or in other departments as part of their development. They
may also undertake some aspects of their line managers role or complete activities like
chairing meetings or giving presentations. However, it is rare to find a team leader in this
position who has a clear development plan where they understand the immediate goals
and underlying objectives.
9. Education for Leadership
Looking externally for suitable courses and development opportunities for newly
appointed leaders
Team leaders, who have started in their role, benefit from participating in
external programmes to build skills and knowledge
Programmes typically involve a mix between formal teaching, case studies and
discussions about things happening back in their workplace
One of the major benefits of the approach is that it brings new team leaders into
contact with external parties; people who work in other companies and sectors
and external tutors who bring a different perspective on problems and issues.
10. Is there sufficient focus on selecting and developing new team leaders?
Are the outcomes of selection processes built into subsequent development
programmes?

the Human Resources evaluated on a regular basis?
Department alone How is the overall leadership development strategy evaluated for effectiveness?
How do senior managers in the organisation play a part in showing they sponsor
the strategy?
11. Backing from Senior Management
Strategic leaders, at the top of the organisation, have a fundamental role to play
in the whole strategy of growing leaders at all levels
The difficulty is, of course, that if the senior management of the company do not
back fully the strategy for leadership development, both in words and actions
then it becomes much harder to implement
Where the top strategic leader is not involved in or committed to the work of
developing leadership, in my experience, you may as well forget it.
John Adair: How to Grow Leaders
12. Conclusions
Team leader development is clearly a very important part of any contact centre operation
in order to maximise performance. However the fact is that organisations differ in how
well they develop and grow their team leaders
In organisations with a poor track record in this area there can often be high costs
caused by ineffective frontline leadership; both in terms of a lower customer experience
and lower employee morale
There is a need for a robust and effective strategy for team leader development which
encompasses training, selection, mentoring, education and the chance to lead as well as
the part senior managers themselves play. The strategy needs to be reviewed on a
regular basis to ensure it remains effective and current to the needs of the team leader
role in practice.
