Leadership - The Art Of Being one of the 3%
As parents, coaches, and business owners, we must develop and posses leadership qualities if we want our children, team members and business to succeed. Whether our desire is to be a leader or not, there are specific skills that must be developed. Leadership styles will differ according to various personalities but main qualities must exist for excellence. Below are six key traits of successful leadership.
1. Logical Decision Maker: People look for their leader to make hard decisions. This problem solving ability will establish credibility and show character when tackling problems. Asses the situation and go with it whether it is right or wrong people will respect that.
2. Being Decisive: Leaders take charge of a situation and have an ability to act swiftly. Watch a coach when time is on the line if this trait is not important.
3. Effective Communication Skills: Getting ones point across is vital for a leader to inspire and delegate tasks. Coaches typically are masters in this area as they inspire confidence and loyalty. They are willing to listen to the ideas and input of those around them. They find pride when others succeed around them and do not hold their superstars back.
4.Confident but not Cocky: Leaders know where they came from and know what it takes. They are always wanting to grow and helping others to do the same. Leaders look to replicate what works with other leaders. The Japanese are masters of this in business. They must be who they are and have a certain "one of a kind" way about them, but if too cocky they will lose respect and followers.
5. Lead by example: Leaders stand up at difficult times. They expect others to do something that they are already willing to do. Many of the most famous leaders throughout history began their careers at the bottom. They worked hard for their success. Their respect is earned not given. Being tenacious is one of their most notable qualities. They have the ability after failure to analyze and make changes to start begin again. Failure is not an option.
6. Core Principle Centered Leadership: I have saved what I believe is the most important trait in a leader for last. There is no hiding this trait. One must be loyal, honest, and respectful to others in all phases of life and business. Companies themselves must also have this trait. Enron was a great example of lack of core principle centered leadership. Many books have been written in this area because it is so very important. Your principals will shine through and people will see this.
I believe leaders are not born but made. Personality helps and is what makes every leader unique. People want someone to follow. If we become leaders, then we must learn and utilize these qualities to become an exceptional leader while always learning to be even better leaders.
