Round three of things you need to know about leadership. Becoming a leader is a journey, and here are another five things you really need to consider in your leadership.
1. Coachable. You are coachable if you remain humble are open to continual learning, and never lose the adventure of discovery.
2. Self-Discipline. Leadership is about taking people to a new place, but also keeping the standards that are put in place. If you want your team to be disciplined and responsible, then you must show the same qualities.
3. Generosity. You must be generous with the one thing that everyone wants… your time.
4. Initiative. As a leader you are expected to create momentum with the group. Get them started. You can only do that if you have the initiative to get yourself started.
5. Focus. With all the chaos and demands of the day, you must have focus on the outcome you desire. You must continually keep the focus on the future you want to create, and not hesitate to move towards it.
I think fifteen things about leadership are enough to keep you thinking. Leadership is a journey. What steps are you taking today?
