Transformational Leadership Practices
An effective communication strategy for reorganizing the company’s new branches by an operational manager requires frequent and interactive meetings with the team members to ensure their well-being and to address any potential issues. Visit every branch frequently to verify that all procedures are running well and to keep an eye on the team’s conduct during a significant change. I must also share ideas and make the team members feel valued and important in order to foster a collaborative thinking atmosphere. Also constantly interacting with my team members. This gives me the information I need to create strategies that will help them grow as a team, while also making them feel like they’re part of an extended family. In addition, it is critical to conduct a poll to see what my employees think of the procedures and to get feedback on my own leadership style.
As an employee of a large company, I am expected to maintain a consistent work rhythm and keep all procedures and operations under control. Occasional meetings, Corporal emails, newsletters, memos and intranet will be used to communicate with the team member in the same way. As a team grows, each member’s connection with the others changes as well. However, continual communication is required since any problem that arises due to the opening of a new branch or the arrival of new clients or unanticipated problems may be beyond the staff’s capacity to resolve on their own. It is my responsibility as a project manager and group leader to look out for the well-being of my team and the achievement of the company’s goals, so it is imperative that we develop strategies and plans to encourage our team members to work together effectively and to maintain a close working relationship in order to keep the job running smoothly.

Both team members and project leaders need to be aware of each other’s needs, as well as the project’s goals, to ensure the project’s success.
Assuming new tasks and moving out of one’s comfort zone can be challenging for team members, therefore their behavior is an important issue to address in the workplace. As a result, maintaining open lines of communication with the team is essential for pinpointing areas for improvement and motivating the group to work together toward the aforementioned objectives. You can also treat the group with empathy and empathy-based leadership to help them achieve their goals, rather than behaving like a dictator. Honesty and responsibility are two of the most critical traits that team members must possess in order for the processes to function as planned. Being a good listener to your coworkers is also critical if you want to learn more about how to solve or avoid difficulties in the future. This gives your coworkers a sense of purpose and encourages them to exhibit dedication to the company’s goals.
