Michael Smith – CIO at Estee Lauder – knows that a strong team is not only essential to advancing an organization’s short- and long-term goals, but also to building the type of organization talented, driven individuals flock toward and long to work for well into the future.
A transformative leader and executive throughout his career, Michael Smith of Estee Lauder knows that developing stronger, more successful teams doesn’t happen overnight, but is rather a comprehensive, multi-faceted process that involves:
• Hiring personnel that fit within company culture – taking the time to evaluate each candidate’s promise for adapting and buying into the values, mission and vision that keep the organization on track.
• Employee empowerment – that which comes from giving new hires the guidance and resources they need to succeed right from the get-go.
• Demonstrating confidence in individual ability – providing the support system employees need to thrive, but also allowing them to work on their own, make mistakes and take ownership of their roles.
