Meditations On Leadership
These are my thoughts on leadership related topics and ideas. It is meant to be a sort of journal for me and if you find it useful than I am happy to have helped.
“The best leaders have a high consideration factor. They really care about their people.” -Brian Tracy If you are self absorbed you will struggle as a leader. A leader by definition is someone who leads others. A good leader is one that cares about those they lead and the followers follow them willingly. No one wants to follow someone that doesn't care about them, that would be self destructive. Leadership LessonIf you don't care then people aren't following you and you aren't a leader. They may be following the money, power, or influence that you control or they may be giving the illusion that they are following you because they are afraid. But they are really only following their instincts for self preservation, gain, or praise. You are actually just an impediment to their desire. They think that they have to appease you to get what they want.
Real leadership, good leadership, doesn't rely on any of that and people follow you because they know that you care about them and you have a common interest that they believe you can help them achieve. Care first, then lead.
