As a business leader, constantly crafting an organisation that can thrive in the most competitive environments is a prime task. However, in shaping your organisation, you must ensure that you are building the traits that will endure, compound and enable competitiveness.

Active Knowledge Question:

If you were to list the traits that you seek to build in your organisation to enable it to succeed beyond all expectations, what would they be?

Organisations take shape from the moment their founder conceives them and are moulded from that moment on until they longer exist.

It is an evolutionary process with the organisation responding and changing as it engages with the competitive environment in which it is interacting.

It can stagnate, grow or die depending on how robust it is and its ability to thrive through the worst, the best and the most stagnant of times in its marketplace.

As a leader, one of your prime tasks is to reinforce and strength your organisation so it can take on and thrive through all times. To achieve this result there are traits that will strengthen the robustness of your organisation and on which you should focus.

Here are the nine sides of robust organisations:

1. Growth Is The Norm And Everyone’s Responsibility

2. Evangelism Is A Part Of Who Everyone Is

3. Diversity — Welcome, Accepted and Wanted

4. There Is No Perfection

5. Purpose and Motive Are Primary

6. Teamwork Is The Method

7. Character and Serving Is A Requirement

8. Change Is The Only Constant

9. There Are No Limits

These traits allow an organisation to develop a robustness whereby it can, will and does embrace challenges, can overcome them and step through them to continue to grow its impact within its chosen market.

To understand what each of these nine sides represent read more.
