Enrich Others

One of the little ways in which you can show you care for others is by taking the extra time needed to better understand things from their perspective.

Enrich Others

Understand the things of major importance to other people, and be mindful of how you can support them in those things.

This attitude of initially attempting to understand what is important to others, and then determining how best to support them, is an important attribute of character. It allows you to enrich the lives of those with whom you’re in contact.

At times, people simply value having a friend, in which case being available to chat or listen is all that’s required – but it is required. At other times, significant accomplishments in the lives of people could be remembered.

In the midst of our day-to-day lives we need to pause to consider how best we can take a few moments on a regular basis to contribute to those with whom we have frequent contact and demonstrate our care for them. We also demonstrate our own character when we make those extra efforts for others.

Given the importance of individuals within an organization, everything that can be done to strengthen, improve, or enrich others needs to be done; and as a result, the value of each individual’s contribution increases. Each individual, and leaders in particular, carry the responsibility for working to improve the relationships they have with others and, if possible, improving the capabilities of those individuals.

This focus can include those for whom we are responsible, those who depend on us downstream of our work, or those upstream on whom we ourselves are dependent. This focus on enriching the lives of others also serves to deepen the culture and power of the organization; it reinforces respect for, and the importance of, each individual.
