For Satish Shankar , Regional Managing Partner of Bain & Company for Asia- Pacific , the COVID-19 crisis has “ reminded us of the power of authentic human engagement with our employees ”, something Shankar believes is acutely needed in times of turbulence , but that is often quickly forgotten when things go back to normal .
“ The best leader will maintain that proximity , transparency , vulnerability and personal storytelling to stay deeply connected with their teams post pandemic ,” Shankar tells Business Chief .
Vikram Bhalla , Senior Partner at BCG Henderson Institute ( BCG ’ s think tank ) says that moving forward leaders should
leave behind such leadership stereotypes as what he calls the “ confident decision maker ” and the “ leader from the front ” and instead bring their humanity to work . What employees and others are looking for , he explains , is an authentic and fully accessible human being and “ this means sharing much more of yourself , and not just your successes , with many more people ”.
Bhalla asserts that leaders must engage with their teams and act with compassion and understanding and must make themselves more visible , available , and accessible through demo days with teams , joint working efforts , and live brainstorming sessions .
