Being a manager today requires juggling multiple roles like mentor and coach, while fundamentally focusing on matching team talents to business needs. Unfortunately, many managers default to assigning tasks based on job titles, overlooking hidden talents that could enhance performance. The shift to remote work has exacerbated this issue, limiting opportunities for spontaneous talent discovery. However, a structured three-step exercise involving self-reflection and team input can help unlock these hidden strengths and improve collaboration, thereby benefiting both the team and the organization’s goals.
Sometimes, we're so used to our strengths that we don't even notice them. This short 15-minute period of self-reflection lays the foundation for using hidden talents.
Unfortunately, as managers struggle with limited time, they overlook the critical component of creatively leveraging people's hidden talents, leading to missed growth opportunities.
