"Leadership Mastery"
Your Success Thought for the Week of January 23, 2008
A client once shared with me the effect that
her director's periodic fowl mood had on her.
To be supportive, she told him: "You're
human; you can't be in a good mood every
day." I disagreed. Leaders have a
responsibility to be firm, level-headed, and
not show the strain of their pressures to
those who follow them.
Marginal managers can lead in the good times. It takes a true master to lead during challenging times. As many of your companies are being negatively affected, either directly or indirectly, by the current economic market, perhaps it's appropriate at this time to assess your leadership effectiveness and ask yourself: "Am I a marginal or master leader?" Leaders who have reached the level of mastery know the following to be crucial:
When someone puts their faith in you to lead a division or company, it is among the greatest of professional honors. It is also a mammoth responsibility. Demands multiply from every direction. This is your week to take a good look at who you are as a leader. Are you motivating or de-motivating? A 'title' does not a Master Leader make. Enjoy your discoveries and have an insightful week. Ann
