WELCOME TO 'FRONTLINE LEADERSHIP', a newsletter dedicated to helping those team leaders and managers on the frontlines of daily operations lead experiences and relationships to complement their existing managerial activities. Currently most every enterprise manages relationships but what is needed are ways to also lead those workplace relationships and experiences. Our research suggests there are three key areas within the enterprise that this takes place. Those are between associates and 1) Customers, 2) Fellow associates, and 3) Partners (both internal and external). Team leaders must be aware of all three areas for associates to get the all-important feedback from the daily activities themselves.
