Seven Keys to Setting an Example to Be a Good Leader
By Kristen May, Demand Media
Establish a Clear Vision - Good leaders know where they are leading their employees.
Communicate - Maintain clear lines of communication among yourself and the people who work under you.
Command Attention - If your team respects you, you will have their attention whenever you need to say something and they will respond appropriately.
Listen - Nobody likes leaders who refuses to listen to the ideas, suggestions and concerns of those they are leading.
Provide Direction - As the leader, it is often your fault if an endeavor does not succeed.
Chip In - Just because you're a leader, that doesn't mean you are exempt from chipping in to help when the people who work under you are bogged down.
Be Visible - Let others see what you are doing and how hard you are working by maintaining a steady presence. |
