FranklinCovey's framework for leadership development outlines six critical practices designed to help managers transition into effective leaders who inspire high performance. These core practices include: first, develop a leader's mindset, encouraging managers to shift their focus from doing tasks themselves to achieving results through others; second, hold regular 1-on-1s, establishing consistent, meaningful communication channels with team members; third, set clear expectations, ensuring employees understand desired outcomes and accountability metrics; fourth, practice frequent feedback, providing ongoing coaching rather than waiting for annual reviews; fifth, create a culture of trust, fostering psychological safety and engagement; and sixth, help team members grow, actively supporting professional development and career progression.
