A strong leader demonstrates a unique ability to guide and inspire others, contributing to the effective and efficient functioning of the organization. Both managers and non-managers can exhibit strong leadership by inspiring and encouraging personal and professional development in others, building strong relationships that foster trust and credibility, and readily adapting to new situations. They effectively persuade others through keen organizational awareness, mentor and cultivate employees to create a respectful culture conducive to achievement, and contribute to initiatives that benefit individuals outside their own department while emphasizing collaboration within and among teams.
An individual who ensures that learning is integrated with work and uses the knowledge gained to improve business results approaches their responsibilities by converting information, business data, and processes into opportunities. They view mistakes as essential stepping stones for growth, promote the transfer of knowledge and influence from person to person, and recognize and respond to differing learning preferences while cultivating others’ abilities and talents. They model an open attitude toward self-evaluation, promote self-direction, empower colleagues to make decisions, celebrate the learning process for its own sake, and operate under the belief that everything is subject to re-examination, acting on opportunities to implement positive change.
IMPORTANCE
Awards can come in many forms, from the pomp and ceremony of award shows and trophies to ones where the winner does not receive a prize in the conventional sense but instead gains from the prestige that it brings the firm. There are so many benefits to receiving awards.
Not only are they a fantastic way to gain recognition from industry peers but they also showcase your company, showing customers and clients that you’re one of the best in the market.
The benefits don’t just stop there though. Alongside the obvious, gaining a credible third party endorsement of a product, service or company can help increase sales, enhance reputation and generate growth.It’s very easy to get bogged down in the day-to-day management minutiae and forget to celebrate your successes.An award win can be an incredible morale boost especially in times of recession. Some awards also create a buzz in the press industry, and are therefore worth pursuing if you hope to gain some attraction in the media.
In general what’s great about the way awards work is that you tend not to be judged on profit margins or how well known you are.
Most of the time it’s about that certain ‘je ne sais quoi’, having that unique quality within the market and making a difference to those around you.
So whatever size your business is, you can excel and compete with firms of all shapes and sizes and still stand your ground.
We try our very best to self-fund our own administrative functions by being entrepreneurial and self-sufficient through advertising and ticket sales so as to be able us to make independent decisions that do not have an external hand from sponsors or financiers, among many other reasons.
ZABA, does not do nominations and only notifies or communicates with you if you are the confirmed winner of the said awards.
We proudly invite you to join us as we celebrate the best of the best from across all sectors in Zambia at the prestigious, Zambia Business Awards, ZABA
