OPINION: Mark Zuckerberg must help people feel that Facebook is once again a force of good in the world, rather than a place people go to organize attacks on the Capitol, the CEO of Velocity Coaching writes after Sheryl Sandberg announced her departure.
Fourteen years ago, Mark Zuckerberg hired Sheryl Sandberg to be the heart and soul of Facebook, a role he had a hard time playing with his hyper-logical and often mechanical management style.
She also made the company more friendly toward women and employees with families by pushing for much-needed work-life balance. And when her husband tragically passed, she spoke and wrote openly about it, which created an opening for other people in the firm to speak about their struggles and losses. In times of fear and uncertainty, employees need to hear from a leader that what they are feeling is OK. Attempts to gloss over the bad news only erodes trust and makes people question the leader’s integrity.
Recent research has indicated that employees aren’t leaving their posts as part of the Great Resignation due to compensation and benefits. Instead, after over two years of mostly working from home, many employees are feeling starved for the No. 1 motivator of all: recognition and appreciation. This is likely the case at Meta as well.
Help people tap into their gifts Fourth, Sandberg was known for being exceptional at identifying and recruiting gifted talent. Zuckerberg will have to take the lead there from now on. Great leaders often see gifts that are hiding in plain sight within people throughout the organization. Often, those people are not even aware of their gifts.
