to getting things done

00:00:10

and from taking action to getting others to act.

00:00:13

Generally speaking,

00:00:15

a manager has 4 overall goals.

00:00:18

They must simultaneously produce,

00:00:21

manage,

00:00:22

lead,

00:00:23

and innovate.

00:00:25

1,

00:00:25

producing.

00:00:27

Processing and supervising technical files specific to the job.

00:00:32

2,

00:00:33

managing,

00:00:34

prescribing,

00:00:35

formalizing,

00:00:36

and monitoring the work of their team.

00:00:39

3,

00:00:40

leading,

00:00:41

giving meaning,

00:00:42

motivating,

00:00:43

training,

00:00:44

animating the group,

00:00:45

developing autonomy and participation,

00:00:48

giving feedback,

00:00:49

accompanying the changes.

00:00:51

4,

00:00:52

innovating.

00:00:54

Improving,

00:00:55

optimizing,

00:00:56

and inventing.

00:00:58

When managers are asked to distribute the time

00:01:01

they spend for each of these purposes,

00:01:03

you get the following results

00:01:05

production 45%,

00:01:08

managing 30%,

00:01:10

leading 20%,

00:01:12

innovation,

00:01:13

5%.

00:01:15

You will understand how hard it is

00:01:17

for managers to be properly evaluated by employees

00:01:21

when they spend much more time processing their files,

00:01:25

producing,

00:01:26

and completing their dashboards,

00:01:28

managing,

00:01:29

whereas employees are asking for

00:01:32

more appreciation,

00:01:33

motivation,

00:01:35

support,

00:01:36

and involvement.

00:01:38

Delegating means more time for leading

00:01:41

and innovation because you'll have earned it

00:01:44

by entrusting your employees with the files you were in charge of.

00:01:49

You'll have saved time by empowering employees

00:01:52

as much as possible on management tasks

00:01:56

and by automating the return of data

00:01:59

so as to be less indispensable.

00:02:03

For example,

00:02:04

you will have built

00:02:05

value added reporting tables that can be

00:02:08

completed and updated by the employees involved.

00:02:12

You will save time by using collective intelligence to build

00:02:17

and confirm the vision and the changes to be made.

00:02:21

A good proximity manager will have achieved the following balance

00:02:26

production 25%.

00:02:29

You only have to do the non-delegable tasks.

00:02:32

Management 20%,

00:02:34

prescription,

00:02:35

formalization and monitoring are fluid.

00:02:38

You get autonomous teams,

00:02:40

efficient processes,

00:02:42

smooth,

00:02:43

automatic,

00:02:44

or even automated reports.

00:02:47

Leading

00:02:47

40%.

00:02:49

Employees give the best of themselves

00:02:52

because you lead and facilitate the work

00:02:54

individually and collectively.

00:02:57

This optimal animation facilitates your management part and the innovation part.

00:03:03

And so innovation,

00:03:05

15%,

00:03:07

you are in a continuous improvement process.

00:03:10

You anticipate the change individually and collectively.

00:03:14

I know a manager who has risen rapidly up the hierarchy of a large corporation.

00:03:20

He told me that for each new position he gave himself

00:03:23

3 years to get to the point where he no longer had

00:03:27

to work more than 35 hours a week with results that are evolving.

00:03:33

The 35 hours achieved with good results were a sign

00:03:37

that his delegation had succeeded.

00:03:39

That he'd been able to empower the teams and

00:03:42

go from doing things to getting things done.
