Researcher and author Marcus Buckingham says we&#8217;ve overly complicated what it means to lead. Leading people means checking in with an employee every week for 52 weeks out of the year. Asking about their successes and failures&#8211;big and small. Asking what they loved last week and what they hated. And then what they are focused on this week and how you can help. &#8220;Short-term past, short-term future. Because love lives in the detail,&#8221; he says.
