This doesn't have to come from the leader, it has to come from the team.
And in the end, what matters is how to ensure that your team grows, how to ensure that your team develops.
Obviously, in the end, as a leader, you have to be a multiplier,someone who elevates the rest of your team.

And many managers still find it hard to accept that the higher you are in an organization, your success depends more on the success of everyone around you.
Therefore, you have to put your ego aside and understand that the film is not about you as a leader, which sounds great, you are the leader,the emperor, but it's about you anymore, it's about your team.
And the best way to leave your mark is, of course,ensuring that you have the well-being and development of your team in mind.
And that part is key.And we need to spend more time thinking about how to develop our employees.
Therefore, when it comes to leaving a mark, the mark is left behind.when you have left someone in a better position than you found them.
For example, people often say: no, it's just that I I'd like to do it, but I don't have the time.
For more marketing things, or maybe pivot to marketing or pivot to this other company.
Give it a 5, give it 10% of your time, do it as a side project,collaborate with Marketing.
Marketing will be delighted because it's free resources, so they'll be happy.
But give them those resources, give them that energy too, which they have.person, and that person will be happier.
The marketing team is delighted.And in the end, they gain skills and be much closer.to the position they wants.
And when their adventure with your team comes to an end, which could be anytime,You will be much closer or have many more opportunities, obviously.of being in their dream role because they have been doing it to some extent or also because they have been developing the skills that you you have helped them, what they need to develop to get there, which is also a part which I may not have mentioned, but it is essential to identify if you want to go to position X, what skills you need to develop, and how we are going to get there.
But it is important to map out that path and make it very clear to them, and also to help them.to take that path, because in the end the manager has done it many times.
Your team members probably haven't faced this before, or if they have, they probably didn't know how to handle it.
It's done, it's over, but you have the experience and you have You also have the advantage of having done it with many people,and you can scale it up.
So do it because it's vital, and in the end, that's what leaves a mark.
If a member of your team sees that you look after their interests, in a way Selfless, you will leave your mark.
You work for them, you have to be the one who empowers them,the one that allows them to evolve.
And for that, too, obviously, you have to have a degree of empathy.and a degree of concern for oneself.
If you're not interested in the slightest, the employee will notice.
So, you need to show that empathy.It doesn't mean that I'm their friend, which is important, but rather a mentor, a coach.who, as I said before, genuinely believes in your well-being and development.
And that part is what makes all the difference.What about Ikigai on a professional level?
When I talk about career plans with my teams, what I try to make them see is that because often people are not sure where they want to go,And that's perfect.
In the end, there are people who are 50 years old and don't know where they want to go.
It's okay, in the end it's all a journey and the important thing is to take steady steps forward.in which there is growth.
A very simple heuristic is to create what is known as Ikigai at the level of professional career, which is like a Venn diagram,three circles, and in one circle, write what you are passionate about, what you are well, and whatever there is demand for.
You have to be right in the middle, you have to look for what you are good at.
Well, there's demand, and you're passionate about it.
If you are good at something and love it, but there is no demand for it, no one will hire you.
It is also important to often ground the equipment and perform this exercise.even on a blackboard. Hey, draw three things.
What you are good at, what motivates or excites you, and what fulfills you inside and what the market demands or where you can also make an impact.
And in the end, making people do this tends to work very well, and it's a way of thinking. And it's easy to find that motivation and that career plan.
