Jody and I are exploring what it means to be “Action Oriented” and how that can and will set an individual apart, whether in leadership or a support role.
What does it mean to be action-oriented? How do urgency, energy, and enthusiasm impact our attitude when it comes to approaching a challenge? As leaders, we know the importance of making decisions, but sometimes unnecessary planning can leave an initiative dead in the weeds. Action-oriented individuals identify and seize new opportunities. They are the kind of person that will help a team succeed.
Often, the fear of making mistakes can leave us in a place of analysis paralysis. Looking at all the angles has benefits, but by the time you look at them all, the opportunity will pass. Action-oriented individuals understand that mistakes may happen, but the momentum gained. As a leader, it is imperative to know how to coach an action-oriented person and how to increase capacity for risk and clearly define priorities.
