Dear Children,
The greatest privilege of leadership is the chance to elevate lives. It's important that leaders have the ability to focus and motivate themselves as they motivate others.
If you are interested in learning more -start with yourself.
In organizations we must work with and for others. To be able to mutually achieve our goals we must be able to relate to others effectively.
Individuals listen to people they respect and admire. They are more inclined to imitate examples of effective behavior and positive attitudes. Remember that they are watching closely to see how you respond to highly difficult or challenging situations!
As a leader, your main priority is to get the job done, whatever the job is.
Make sure everybody counts and everybody knows they count. Legitimate self-confidence is a winner - the true test of self-confidence is the courage to be open.
As a leader,
Communicate More With Those That You Lead. Ask more questions. Example: What's working? What's not working? What could we do better? How are we making a difference?
Listen more. Stop assuming you know everything. Don't assume you know what others want
Don't Play the Blame Game; Be Clear About What You Expect; Accept That Everyone's Style is Different; Lead By Example; Learn from Your Mistakes and those of Other's; Give Credit Where Credit's Due; Be flexible; Have a sense of humour: It is most essential for a good leader.
With Love, Amma-Naana
