What separates inspiring leaders from average ones?
Employees worldwide agree on what motivates them most.
Inspiring leaders give sincere praise (85% essential), admit mistakes (81%), truly listen (top 3 behavior), and show internal/external reliability (30% see it consistently). Average leaders focus on tasks over people, leaving employees disengaged and hunting jobs.
"The greatest compliment... was when one asked me what I thought and attended to my answer."
Henry David Thoreau
41% gap exists between "admitting wrong" importance vs. performance.
Focus on human behaviors vs fancy strategies to engage employees.
Leaders overestimate their people skills—humans rate themselves "above average" on social tasks. Blind spots persist: appreciation (under 50% feel valued), listening (49% confident), honesty (17% see dishonesty). Gallup confirms: leadership drives disengagement.
Organizations waste billions on wrong leadership fixes.
US spends billions yearly on training, yet 23% call leaders effective. Employees 4x more likely to job hunt when leaders lack external reliability. 10x satisfaction gap when leaders always honest vs rarely. Without fixing these 4 behaviors, no strategy works.
