Your team will want to follow you if it sees that it can be part of a great future with you So, take a look at your organization’s mission statement, vision statement, and business plan, and think about how your people can contribute in a way that’s meaningful and compelling to them (If you’re a senior leader, it’s down to you to do some serious strategy work to develop an inspiring and worthwhile plan for your whole organization!) Don’t assume team members will automatically buy into and deliver the vision Instead, find a way to motivate them to do so Business storytelling is a powerful tool here
