These priceless individuals value results and the bottom line. The leaders people want to follow balance bottom-up and top-down decision-making. On the days in which I fail, I pick myself up (usually with a good someone’s good help) and pledge to do better tomorrow. Anyone who supervises others is automatically tasked with planning, organizing, and directing. Every boss gives orders and assigns work.

This is true in all three directions: top-down, horizontally, and bottom-up. Involve bottom-up: Traditionally, organizations follow a top-down design, resulting in one-way communication. Without communication, no organization. An organization’s achievements are directly and indirectly influenced by interpersonal communication. If you want an excellent organization, you will need excellent communication and, by extension, excellent interpersonal communication. But why?

Bottom-up commitment. The early majority eventually want to hook up with the new idea, but want some proof that it works before committing. Their resistance comes from concern—they want things to go well and need to reassure themselves that the new way will provide sufficient benefits that weigh up against the costs (the energy required to implement the change and its possible challenges—or downright disadvantages).

That is why the change needs to be lived top-down, not bottom up. What makes a leader successful? In essence, it’s all about influence. Whatever your leadership style, the nature of your organization, etc., you as leader want to influence your team members to do the things that are good for your organization and the things that are (even) better for the organization, thereby making it an excellent organization.

Promoting them and offering them people-management responsibility is setting them up for failure. Promotion bumps up the ego and gives a salary hike; however, the real problem starts after the initial period gets over and it’s time for a reality check. The person’s career trajectory will speed up, depending on how one manages such transition. The bottom-up approach to work must be replaced with a top-down approach.

For larger and mature companies, the hard part seems to be giving up the familiar space that isn’t working so well anymore, so that you can focus on a new segment or opportunity. Like the refrain of an old country song, if you don’t know where you’re going, you will probably end up somewhere else. Innovation initiatives of any appreciable scale require a formal, intentional resource commitment, and work best bottoms-up.

If you’re like most companies, odds are you have no problem coming up with worthy long term goals and basic plans for achieving them. However, not every company comes up with a successful strategy all the time; it just means it is rather easy to come up with a plan that leads somewhere. While executive oversight is important, continuous improvement is actually driven from the bottom up in small steps by people on the front lines.

The same levels simply needed to be considered from the top-down as opposed to the bottom-up. Your “flow” needs to be top-down, as opposed to bottom-up. The levels model! When you say those three words to anyone that has been in the training space for more than a decade, the image of Donald Kirkpatrick jumps to mind for a reason.
