There is no topic more important to business today than leadership
Leadership qualities are the distinguishing personal characteristics
of a leader such as intelligence, values and appearance. Leadership
occurs among people, involves the use of influence, and is used to
attain goals. Leadership is reciprocal, occurring among people.
Leadership is a people activity, distinct from administrative paper
shuffling or problem solving activity. Leadership qualities involve
the dynamic use of power and influence. Much has been written about
leadership qualities but... What is the biggest enemy to developing these qualities?
The answer is You, Yourself. The nagging voice that says "Be like
him." You see when you are trying to be like someone else, the best
you can ever be is second best. Use what God has given you. Use what
you are good at... Follow your unique plan! Resist imitation and you
will develop unlimited leadership qualities. How do you distinguish a man of distinction?
The minute you walk into the room, people judge you in an eye blink.
It stems directly from charisma, or lack of it. Possessing charisma
often brings to mind a historical figure or a celebrity. Charisma is a unique leadership quality
We are so used to the word charisma that we seldom spend any time
thinking about why most of us view it in the way we do. It is entirely
learnable. It is about tapping into your natural ability to make
powerful impressions, even if this currently lies dormant or
under-exploited. You personal impact is your charisma effect. The most
important ingredient to develop this unique leadership quality is - do
not imitate. Consider these words from one of history's greatest artists
My mother said to me, "If you become a soldier you will become a
general; if you become a monk you will end up as the pope". Instead, I
became a painter and wound up as Picasso. Remember
No one ever developed great leadership qualities by imitation. A true
quality of leader is - to be original. An original is hard to find but
easy to recognize.
