(From PRWEB) -- Checkster, the leading talent assessment vendor leveraging collective intelligence, today released a study analysis that details the biggest misperception and area of improvement for leaders: the ability to energize their team.
Based on an analysis of more than 17,000 business, non-profit and government employees, the consistently number one area where people lacked performance and were rated lower by their colleagues was the ability to energize those same colleagues. Interestingly, it was also the dimension with the second largest discrepancy between managers' self-perception versus the perception of their colleagues about their leadership competencies. But it comes often undetected, as many colleagues experienced them as better than they actually believe, and an equal number perceive them as worse, so the difference its cancelling itself out in the same team. This conclusion seems to show that leaders could benefit from using new ways to reach the people they are leaving cold and unmotivated.
