Apologize Quickly Without Hesitation “I’m sorry” can help a situation very quickly. Leadership does not mean insulating yourself from subordinates and hiding any weaknesses. If you fess up quickly, people working for you will respect you more and follow directions. 2. Admit When You Don’t Know Every Answer Not admitting mistakes comes from a sense of superiority and pride. Leadership is a servant role. And, like anyone in business, you are never going to have all of the answers. Revealing you are human is helpful; good leaders go and find the answers the team needs. 3. Analyze First, Then Act It takes time to collect information, and there’s a sense in leadership that you need to move quickly. We are paid to respond and act, not to sit back and wait for someone else to solve problems. 4. Be Quick With Positive Feedback, Slow With Criticism Many team members in young companies need constant encouragement. We live in complex, competitive times and people are inundated with too many tasks and not enough time. Technology and business life can be overwhelming. So it’s important to point out any “wins” no matter how small. And, if you do have to criticize, think seriously about the impact first. 5. Ask Personal Questions Try to understand your team’s personal motivations more and relate on a personal level. 6. Hire for Potential Study resumes more looking for clues about potential and not as much on their narrow skill set as listed on a sheet of paper. 7. Fire for Negligence Sometimes you should move fast on dismissals. Why? Because those troublemakers will bring down the team as a whole. As a leader, you need to protect your team. 8. Share Good Ideas Quickly and Often They could spur others on. 9. Promote Slowly By waiting, you can mentor them more and train them on how to handle the added responsibility. 10 Don’t Just Communicate, Facilitate You should help your team reach goals and pave the way for them by your example. It’s the difference between just giving information versus nurturing growth. 11. Nurture Allies at Work Intentionally Leadership is often seen as a solo effort. It’s not. The best leaders have friends and allies at work who provide counsel and advice. 12. Revel in Success By not revelling as much, it can zap the motivation to push harder next time. Reward everyone and really pause to make everyone enjoy the moment. For additional information, contact a member of the MANA Group administration team at pr@managroup.org MANA Group Fundraising: End
