Jasdeep Singh Principal
Increased productivity and the satisfied team are what every leader in every organization wants. This is one of their top priorities of boosting up the performances of their employees. However, where the environment of the organization, nature of the work and other factors contribute to it, some other activities also contribute to increasing the productivity of the team members. These activities are part of leadership development and are as essential as any other work or activity is. These activities are also known as leadership activities and are included in the duties of the leader who needs o follow them and improve the efficiency of the employees significantly. These activities are

  • Communication,
  • Clarity towards goals
  • Problem Solving

Communication

Communication is always vital in increasing the morale and the productivity that later is seen as a result of the work. Everyone benefits from good communication. Communication helps to avoid any miscommunication and clear everything so that there is no ambiguity and confusion anymore. When teams or leaders communicate clearly with each other they can remove all the problems and issues that may be arising between them and provide them with a clear picture all the time. The team members then feel more relaxed about talking to their leader and finding out solutions to the problems that they thought o difficult to find. Hence, solving situations faster than before. 

Clarity towards goals 

Often, when the work assigned to an individual, is not done on time and deadlines and expectations are not being met, it is probably because of the lack of the clarity regarding the topic and tasks that have been assigned rather than the individuals lack in quality of being able to complete work timely. If a proper understanding of the task is not given, it can also turn out to be costly and time-consuming as well. Therefore, clarity towards the goals that need to be achieved should be clearly understood by the team and this is a responsibility of the leader. 

Problem Solving

Amongst all the leadership activities the problem-solving skill is the most integral one. Majorly everything relies on that. Problem-solving gives a chance to the team for better collaboration, brainstorming, and more involvement and enhances their team collaboration and team working skills more. This leadership activity also enhances their creativity which helps them in becoming a better team. 

These leadership activities should be followed and practised to increase the efficiency and productivity of the team in various projects and situation that they might face in the future.
