Five Traits of Good Leaders
Source: Communication
Briefings ideas that work
Increase your effectiveness as a team leader with these suggestions from
Barry J. Farber, president of Farber Training Systems Inc.:
- Don’t push too much. Encourage your team members to do more,
but know when it’s too much. The signs: flaring tempers, moodiness,
sarcasm.
- Exhibit good values. As a leader, your example will be followed,
whether or not you’re trustworthy and committed.
- Roll up your sleeves. Never be afraid to do what it takes to
get the job done. Team members will respect you more when you show willingness
to work alongside them.
- Serve others. "How can I help you?" is a good phrase for co-workers
as well as for customers. And by helping your team succeed, you’ll succeed
as well.
