Are you a generous person? Early in my career a guy took me under his wing and taught me about Project Management. His generosity completely changed the trajectory of my career! Mentoring is one form of generosity. Recognizing others is a great way to be generous. When we see someone working hard, accomplishing a milestone or taking a step out of their comfort zone we need to recognize them. And how about giving your team members a shout out when you see them upholding the company core values or the project’s guiding principles? Leaders who demonstrate generosity delight in helping others succeed. They want to see others be successful. Imagine the impact it can have on your team and the results they deliver. How can you be generous to the people on your team?
