The day of an AutoUncle leader naturally varies depending on where in the business you work. And although we specialise in different ways, we do have some overarching expectations that are true for all managers.
High-level expectations for all AutoUncle managers
- You provide a clear vision and translate it into strategic, actionable steps
- You are clear about expectations for everyone on your team
- You are committed and drive accountability to deliver on goals
- You are courageous in asking for personal feedback regularly
- You invest in the growth and development of your people and provide regular, specific feedback - both positive and constructive
- You proactively build a pipeline of diverse candidates and attract, assess and successfully hire top talent.
- You are compassionate and express interest/concern for team members’ success and personal well-being
- You lead with curiosity to create breakthroughs for the business and fuel company growth
- You prioritize self-awareness and self-development
Put them to work
How you live up to the high-level expectations depend on your function and the group of people that you lead. Good places to start are by:
- Have a conversation with your manager about what each of these bullets mean for you and your team.
- Talk with your team. Use the list to seek feedback on growth opportunities and be curious about how you can have a bigger impact in your team.
- Learn from peers: meet with other leaders at AutoUncle to learn about what they do to make the list of expectations come to life in their work.
