If leadership could be summed up in one simple thought, it would be “setting an example for others to follow”. Setting the example means you don’t ask someone to do something you wouldn’t willingly do yourself. This means setting a standard of excellence for others to aspire to, while giving them the tools, motivation and inspiration to follow you. Employees want their leaders to be truthful and respect them, regardless of their relative position within the organization. Respect works both ways, and it must be earned. “Leadership is not position,” says Stephen Covey, author of several bestselling leadership books. “It’s moral authority. Moral authority comes from following universal and timeless principles like honesty, integrity and treating people with respect.”
Leadership skills are an essential component in positioning executives to make thoughtful decisions about their organization’s mission and goals, and properly allocate resources to achieve those directives. Valuable leadership skills not only include the ability to delegate, inspire and communicate effectively within the organization but also need to understand the market, understand the tactics of competitors and invent the strategies outside the borders of an organization.
