If you applied the previous steps and you're seeing signs of transformation, innovation and achievement, it's time for Step three. Aligned tasks with Resource Is resource is refers to people, and in this step, it's all about discovering the specific soft skills each person on your team uniquely possesses, which uniquely qualifies them to carry out the tasks that need to be done. A few examples would be empathizing with others, communicating complex ideas in a simple way or an ability to accept and learn from criticism. Even things like effective time management, problem solving or a relentless positivity can be soft skills. Some individuals possess that others don't. These aren't skills anyone had to teach them. They just naturally come out of that person's character in alignment. Leadership leaders value people for who they are, not just what they do to know who you people are. You have to pursue them, and this requires intentionality. The more intentional you are, the more you'll discover. Then you can begin to evaluate your people for soft skills, not just hard skills. This doesn't require a sophisticated online assessment. It just requires ongoing conversations in between meetings, at lunch or even over a coffee break. Seek people out, get to know their stories as you listen to them. Share story about their weekend, their kids or fulfilling personal achievement. Think about what you just learned about that person and the soft skills they possess. Watch how they do their work and interact with others. Evaluate your resource is Do you have people with the right soft skills to accomplish your prioritize tasks? Once you do have the right people begin matching them with the tasks they care about. Find out what people want to do, not what they're willing to dio. This leads to the transformation and the fulfillment people are looking for. Imagine being assigned to a task after receiving verbal acknowledgement as the most effective communicator on the team. Or if you were told that out of everyone on the team, you have the greatest ability to see past all the distractions and cut to the root of the problem. That feels good. And it is the kind of a filling experience alignment leadership helps create for people. In short, this step helps leaders ensure they not only have enough people on the team, but they also have the right people on the team to accomplish the purpose, not the tasks. And remember, the team doesn't accomplish the tasks. They manage the tasks to accomplish the purpose. What's the difference?
