There are several skills that set the best managers apart from the rest.

Emotional Intelligence

Emotional intelligence is critical to your workplace culture because managers shape much of the day-to-day work environment for 90% of your workforce. Now more than ever, managers need the skills to manage their emotions and help their people do the same. In the workplace, 80-90% of the professional competencies that differentiate top performers are related to emotional intelligence. It's no wonder that implementing EQ training for managers can yield an ROI as high as 1,000%.

Psychological Safety

Studies show that building a psychologically-safe workplace is the most important and impactful thing a manager can do to create high-performing teams. Yet few managers know what it is, let alone strategies they can consistently use to create it. Psychological safety drives innovation, learning, and belonging because people feel safe to be their authentic selves.

Coaching

Millennials, who will be 75% of the workforce by 2025, hunger for opportunities to learn and grow at work. They want managers who can provide performance coaching and give them helpful and actionable feedback. Coaching skills are a must for anyone supervising millennials and members of Gen Z, the next largest generation to enter the workforce.

Purpose

This is driving a renewed focus on meaningful work and purpose. A recent study by McKinsey found that "nearly seven out of 10 employees are reflecting on their purpose because of Covid-19. In fact, we found that as a result of Covid-19, half of American employees are reconsidering the work that they want to do." Millennials are likely to see work as their "life calling." Gen Z is the first to prioritize purpose over salary — they read mission statements and expect work cultures built on social purpose and consistent application of values.

Today's managers need to know how to have authentic and open conversations about purpose and help employees see the connection between their work and the bigger vision their team and company are trying to achieve.

Change Management

While burnout is the No. 1 reason workers are giving today for quitting, the second reason is "too much organizational change." Change management is an often-overlooked skill, but critical to your organization's success. Did you know that 50-70% of change initiatives fail? The reason is often that managers are not given the information or skills they need to get their employees on board with a change. Training your managers on leading change greatly increases your organization's success.

Execution and team accountability

Many great companies have failed, not because they lacked innovative ideas, but because they could not execute those ideas. A large part of every manager's job is driving the execution of strategic goals. In addition, managers must find the right balance of creating a culture of accountability while using psychological safety, not blame-and-shame techniques, to do it. Very few managers have the innate skills to do this but most can learn when given the right training.

Speaking of accountability, ultimately, managers become great because they are held to a standard of performance that measures the health of their team, not their individual wins. So while training can give them the skills, you must also hold them accountable for their results.

Work Models Linked to Leadership Styles

Due to recent technological advances, organizations currently face massive changes of their work design and leadership. Unfortunately, the exact nature of these changes is still unclear as most existing studies were conducted during earlier stages of the digital transformation and the available literature is highly fragmented. To provide an up-to-date overview on the changes in work design and leadership resulting from the digital transformation and to structure our existing knowledge in this domain, we conducted an open-ended online survey with 49 recognized #digitalization experts and identified key themes of change. In sum, four key themes of change affecting both work design and leadership emerged, namely changes in work-life and health, the use of information and communication technology, performance and talent management and organizational hierarchies. In addition, two macro-level change dimensions regarding the structure of work and relationship oriented leadership evolved. While some of the identified changes were partly covered in earlier studies, others have so far not received much attention despite their apparently high relevance in the current stage of the digital transformation.  The results of this study therefore provide an important basis for future research and help organizations to strategically prepare for the requirements of the digital age.
