‘Be the leader that everyone respects and wants to work for.’ Great leadership is about gaining the respect of teams, cultures and businesses through the leaders actions and behaviours.
Which, in short, means:
? Set a clear path and vision for where you are going,
? Set and communicate clear values and behaviours that you adhere to,
? Work hard yourself – but not into the ground – in balance with your team,
? When behaviour drifts (yours or your teams), correct it quickly with clarity and empathy, and
? Acknowledge the efforts of your team and celebrate the wins when they come.
Simple, isn’t it? ?
Being a leader that everyone wants to work for isn’t about being popular or nice, it involves serving a purpose and serving your team before serving yourself.
