Congratulations you are the boss but are you a LEADER? The
definition of a Leader: Leaders help themselves and others do the right things.
They set direction, build an inspiring definition, and create something new.
Leadership is mapping out where you need to go as a “team” to win.
You are the one that everyone looks to for direction. Employee’s
(teammates), customers and vendors know you are the boss. When you look back at
your own work history I am confident you have had some fantastic bosses, the
ones that inspired you to be who you are today. Then there were some you would
care not to work with ever again. They too gave you some valuable information
on how not to succeed as a leader. The fantastic bosses are the one’s whom are
there to support but not micro manage what you have asked your employee to do.
The fantastic bosses are the ones whom praise in public but counsel in private.
Fantastic bosses understand human nature and the fact that people want to do a
good job and feel good about their work. A fantastic boss leads the charge and
sets examples of how the operation should flow. Be the boss you want to be and make
gradual changes to your work place. Today is a new day and it is up to you to
make the difference. Not sure where to start?
It costs nothing but your time if you wish to talk about how you can make positive changes. Contact us at ford@fordbusinessconsultants.com.
