“Inspect the condition of your pond before recruiting and expecting others to swim with you if your goal is for long term and accomplished partnerships”
-chief performance consultant Michael Walker
verify whether the environment you lead passes the ‘POND’ checklist
does your staff feel their workplace is:
P | purposeful?
O | optimistic?
N | nourishing?
D | dynamic?
The results of a leader’s ‘pond analysis’ are the basic yet undisputable predictors of their team’s ability to achieve long term success. Managing oneself and the environment they foster for others to thrive within is only part one of a leader’s responsibility. The ultimate role of a leader is to raise the performance of their team to heights they would not reach on their own.
“One should only expect a flock to follow you in flight if the pond you’ve
prepared them to leave from was managed thoughtfully”
-chief performance consultant Michael Walker
