Ep 410: How Leadership Styles Affect Growth With Matthew Pohl, The ReWild Group

A business stops growing when the leader keeps using a leadership style that is not fit for the next stage it is supposed to be in. When you know what stage you are in your business, you can identify the style that fits your present needs to keep you growing.In this episode, Matthew Pohl from The Rewild Group talks about the different stages of business growth, how you should change your leadership style throughout these different stages, and how important it is to know which stage you are in your business right now. Listen and learn in this episode!KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODEWhat drives complexity is not the age or the revenue of the business, but the number of people involved in that organization. The more people you add, the more complexity there is.Organizations stop growing because the leadership doesn't understand that they keep acting like they're in a previous stage. They don't realize that things have changed underneath them.When you're misaligned with the rules of growth, you may not realize that you’re carrying a bunch of weight that is holding you down.As a leader, the CEO can spend time in three different ways— as a specialist, manager, and visionary.You as the CEO still need to grow those managers that you're putting in place to do the day-to-day management. They still need you. As a CEO, you have to be more of a chameleon than your managers and everybody else.The six different leadership styles are visionary, coaching, commanding, pace-setting, democratic, and affiliative. Each one is needed in a different stage of the business.Having a roadmap and being aligned with the rules of growth is the key to scaling your business.Recommended Tool:Trello https://trello.com/ Recommended Podcast:Craig Groeschel Leadership Podcasthttps://www.life.church/leadershippodcast/Primal Leadershiphttps://www.amazon.com/Primal-Leadership-New-Preface-Authors/dp/1422168034Today’s Guest:Matthew Pohl is the founder and owner of The ReWild Group, a business consulting firm dedicated to multiplying the number of exceptional businesses globally.
