“Essential Habits and Principles for Great Leadership”
By: J. Glenn Ebersole, Jr., Founder & Chief Executive of J. G. Ebersole Associates and The Renaissance Group ™
You have probably heard it said that many people are born leaders. However, the ability to lead is an art and requires learning a powerful set of skills and principles and then honing those skills and practicing those principles to the highest level. The legendary football coach Vince Lombardi said this about great leadership, “Leadership rests not only upon ability, not only upon capacity; having the capacity to lead is not enough. The leader must be willing to use it. His leadership is then based on truth and character.” So, what are some of the essential habits and principles that will help you and your clients grow into great leaders?
In researching for a response to the above question, I found the following to share as essential habits and principles to develop great leadership.
+ Be an example of Absolute Integrity. Great leaders maintain their integrity 100% of the time.
+ Be a Visionary and declare your vision. A great leader shares the declared vision, anticipates the future and identifies opportunities before others do.
+ Be a Life Long Learner. The great leaders will dedicate themselves to do this and will spend each day to devote themselves to learning something new.
+ Be Surrounded by Great People. Success is not a solo achievement and great leaders are committed to the success of others as well as their own success.
+ Be an Excellent Communicator. Simple and clear written and verbal communications are very essential to great leadership.
+ Be Committed to Creativity and Innovation. The great leaders look at fresh approaches to long-standing problems and are willing to try things others would not think of trying.
+ Be Inclusionary. Another habit of great leaders is exchanging information with employees and customers and seeking opportunities to tell everyone what they need to know to accomplish their tasks and reach their goals.
+ Be Inspirational. Great leaders are inspirational and are able to provide and promote an environment to motivate themselves and others to higher performance levels. Great leadership also commits to delivering exceptional results.
+ Be Positive. Great leaders will develop and promote a positive attitude on a daily basis and will look for opportunities to turn disadvantages into advantages and will expect positive results.
