Did you make a resolution this year? If not, consider focusing on your leadership. Here are seven things you can do to boost your leadership effectiveness.
- Do the right thing consistently, especially when you think no one is watching.
- Lead by example, not by threats and demands.
- Bring out the best in your team. Spend time figuring out each person’s gifts.
- Think uniquely. Don’t fear going against consensus – offer unpopular ideas with mutual respect and conviction.
- To get genuine respect…earn it, don’t demand it.
- Risk more than seems safe, and dream more than is practical.
- Work for your team and customers, not for self interest.
What are you doing this year to be a better leader?
