Good morning. It’s Tuesday, July 15, 2014, and this is your weekly issue of Cynopsis: Classified Advantage!
Welcome to Leadership Lessons, the column that focuses on conversations with senior managers and leaders in the media world, speaking candidly about their professional journeys. Today, meet Orly Adelson, President, ITV Studios America.
What was your first leadership position and what lessons did you learn from it?
I was a lieutenant in the Israeli army for two years, stationed for a year in the Sinai Desert. That experience taught me the importance of work ethic, determination, and that teamwork is the only way to success.
What’s the most important part of managing staff?
Building their trust. That means many things, such as:
- Your staff trusting that in a creative conversation their ideas won’t be judged
- Trusting that they can come to you if there’s something wrong so you can solve the problem together
- Trusting in your vision so they can work with you to make that vision a reality
Tell us about a difficult management problem and what you did to overcome it.
A tough problem is when one of your team loses his or her confidence; it doesn’t just affect them – it can affect the wider team, too. I would give them a project that they can excel in, and that helps demonstrate my belief in them. Succeeding will reignite the passion for what they’re doing and restore their confidence.
What do you look for when interviewing job candidates?
The first thing I look for is a positive, creative outlook and a broader knowledge outside of the role that is being discussed. I also like them to have an insight into the position that I hadn’t thought of.
