It's Good To Know

Light The Way With These Key Leadership Skills | Alternative Fruit

You have creative vision, you see a solution to a problem and you want to make it happen. You're a leader, and one of the best kinds. You don't just demand the book version, you demand the fresh version, the best version. So how do you go about putting your power into action? You need to work on a handful of leadership skills.


Clear Vision. No half-way house or roundabout idea. It's imperative that you can discuss your idea to high resolution, you need answers and test results. Prove to yourself that you know what you are aiming for and that it's worth achieving. Everyone who comes to you for help or instruction needs to get the same information. The ideals and methods of the team are rooted in your notion of how it's seen. You must have a precise template that ensures everyone knows exactly what they're doing.


Adaptability. Things change, people change, situations change. We can try and fight the tide or we can harness it for our own benefit. Long-lived projects and ideas are able to flow with the natural currents of society. Digging in your feet to shifting sands will see you buried. Ride the dynamics of society, if you don't like the way it's going then take the correct route to be heard. Imagine a sailing boat on the ocean, perhaps they want to go east and the wind is blowing north. What do they do? Probably adjust the sail so they are pushed in a north-east direction. It's the best they can do in the circumstances. Trying to row due east may be more accurate but it will cost a lot of energy.


Be Like Glue. Teams are made of individuals. These people will have their own strengths and weaknesses. A leader can sit between these people and work as a cohesive bond between them. Matching ideas and methods with skills and personalities takes understanding and courage. Diverse skill sets make great teams. Finding skills in every area, making use of cultural viewpoints, and ensuring all people are given consideration requires a diverse set of people.


Lift People Up. Weaknesses and blind-spots are opportunities for a person to learn and become enlightened. Rather than shaming or punishing someone for their short-comings, give them an opportunity to develop their personalities. Good team members are hungry for more training and more experience so be prepared to lift people up, provide them with friendly advice, educate them in the methods and techniques you know.


Be Inspirational. If you're the leader, if it's your grand vision that's being put into action then you have to radiate purpose. When people meet you they have to feel motivated and inspired to produce for you. When you can communicate your vision and nourish your team, stay cool in the rising tide, then motivation will probably be natural. Other things you can do is offer genuine rewards and compliments, discover who prefers the stick and who prefers the carrot then use them to their best effect.
