10 Leadership Trends to Watch in 2023
The pandemic completely changed leadership and employee-employer relations.
Last week I hosted an audio event focused on the trends leaders should keep in mind this year to improve retention and increase profits.

Here are the top 10 trends shared:
- Hybrid Leadership: Leaders must know how to be visible AND create psychological safety in remote and in-person environments.
- Values-Based Leadership: Leaders must create opportunities and spaces for employees to connect with their why. Companies must also ensure that employees can connect with their mission, vision, and objectives.
- Meetings, Meetings, Meetings: Successful leaders will rethink all gatherings, discussions, collaboration, and decision-making approaches.
- Intersectionality: Leaders will need to learn about intersectionality, identities, and how we bring them to work (Click here to learn more about the intersectional aspects of leadership)
- Belonging: Leaders must bridge the diversity gap by creating a sense of belonging. (Listen here to hear specific examples of how to do this in remote-first environments).
- Gig Economy and Side Hustles: Conflicts of interest agreements will become more common and relaxed. Leaders will need to become more comfortable with their employees having multiple sources of income.
- Mental Health: Employees will have their mental health ‘checked’ like a routine physical checkup.
- Menopause: Menopause will become an even more critical topic as women leaders age ‘out loud’ in the workplace.
- Future Proofing Employees: Leaders will create and implement workforce development programs around upskilling and right skilling.
- ‘Rightsizing’ Organizations: Leaders must learn to ‘do more with less.’ There may be more workforce reductions, and companies will scream that they have fewer resources.
