How will your leadership behaviors change after COVID-19?
I’ve seen some pretty sad displays of business leadership during this crisis.
Governments hiding the truth. Business owners forsaking their people.
By now, most have seen the story of Chili’s in the Atlanta airport, where they had all their workers come in to clean the store and then laid them all off directly afterwards.
As a leader, have you taken a hard look at yourself in the mirror and witnessed how your behavior had changed in this crisis? Are you self-aware?
Jobless claims soared to 3.2M.
This week, I heard of a business leader moving all their sales staff from partial salary to 100% commission. This in a company that can’t sell anything right now. Might as well lay everyone off.
Then I’ve seen leaders that eliminated their entire salary and all the executives took a pay cut.
Some companies have cut all salaries in half during this crisis to keep everyone on staff and protect their jobs.
While others have used this as a way to eliminate people they wanted gone from their company all along.
Imagine what people will look for in a leader after this crisis? Especially at a time where companies will be hiring in the droves.
