A leader is a person who has a unique combination of personal skills and qualities that motivate others to follow him.
Let’s talk more about the necessary lessons today:
Purposefulness
Every leader must have a global goal. It’s not about the small goals that everyone has and are achieved in a short period of time. Often such a goal is a challenge, but not taken from the ceiling, but well thought out and quite achievable. Of course, a leader does not just have a goal, he paves the way to achieve it and follows it, leading others.
Ability to learn
If a leader is in the top position in the company, it does not mean that he is sitting idly by – he will still find what he needs to study because the world is not standing still. Do not miss the opportunity to gain new knowledge, it will help not only in your development as a leader.
Initiative
A true leader is never afraid to step out of his comfort zone and take risks. This applies to both work and daily life. If you do not show initiative in time, you have to pay a serious price. So when you have ideas, feel free to express them.
Mistakes as an opportunity
The following skill follows from the previous point: the leader is not afraid to show initiative, because he knows that mistakes are a step to success. He has no fear of mistakes, of the opinion of others – he goes to his goal, stumbles, and learns from it to do better next time.
Confidence
Without confidence, you can not even stand in front of the audience, it helps to motivate subordinates and instill in them faith in the best in times of crisis. Complements confidence and charisma: the ability to speak eloquently, the ability to speak and listen, the presence of a sense of humor, and more.
Emotional intelligence
The leader must feel the mood of other people to find the right approach to them: to cheer when they are sad or to inspire work when everything is falling apart. Developed emotional intelligence helps to clearly understand and control your emotions. For the leader – stress is inevitable, and therefore the emergence of anger, irritation, panic, etc. – as well. The leader must be resilient to stress, be steadfast in critical situations, be able to cope with negative emotions.
