Growing Leaders. Building Trust. Strengthening Our Mission.
Today, we kicked off our first SRS LEAD Leadership Development Training with our new Home Coordinators and Managers!
SRS LEAD represents the qualities we strive to develop in ourselves as leaders and role models:
🔹 L – Leadership: Lead by example and inspire others.
🔹 E – Empowerment: Empower teammates and the individuals we serve.
🔹 A – Accountability: Take ownership of decisions, actions, and outcomes.
🔹 D – Development: Commit to continuous learning and professional growth.
At SRS, we believe in investing in our people because strong leaders and well-supported teammates are the foundation of quality services and meaningful outcomes for the individuals we support every day.
One of the most impactful parts of the training was an exercise focused on trust, communication, and stepping outside our comfort zones. Participants paired up and navigated lunch activities while blindfolded, relying entirely on their partner for guidance.
The experience offered a powerful reminder of what it feels like to be new to an organization and depend on others for support, direction, and reassurance. It also provided valuable perspective on the trust that many of the individuals we serve place in our teammates every day as they navigate their own lives and experiences.
Leadership is more than managing tasks. It's about building trust, empowering others, embracing growth, and creating an environment where both teammates and the individuals we support can thrive.
We're excited to continue investing in the development of our leaders as we strengthen our culture of Respect, Independence, and Dignity.
