Author of two books, Undefeatable and F’d Up: The Upside To Failure, Tiana Sanchez is in the business of developing managers and leaders, and believes there is no limit to your success. As the owner of an organizational training and development practice, she works with for profit, non-profit and educational institutions to foster a more confident and competent workforce in the new economy.

In today’s interview, Tiana shares some startling workplace statistics, the reason why organizations are currently experiencing a leadership gap, the difference between managers and leaders in terms of focus and skill set, and how to become a better manager and leader who empowers people to excel.

Key Takeaways

1) What is the difference between a manager and a leader? A manager lights the fire under an employee, whereas a leader lights the fire within the employee. Managers are process drivers, and are operationally driven. Leaders empower people to support a vision and do the work.

2) There are 3 levels of leadership training needed in today’s marketplace: (1) leading self, (2) leading others, and (3) leading the organization.

3) Studies indicate that 82% of managers today are a mis-cast. Most people are promoted to management because of seniority or a history of success in previous role, rather than a demonstrated ability to manage and lead people.

4) In 100-500 employee organizations, the average manager receives 6-12 minutes of training, per 6 months.

5) To be an effective manager, you must act like a manager but think like a CEO.

6) To be an effective leader, you must have a high degree of influence, empathy, compassion, vulnerability, transparency, and be able to establish a high level of trust.

7) The statement “It’s not personal, it’s just business” is untrue. It’s always personal, because you’re dealing with a person.
