• For an assumed leadership role
  • For an assumed leadership role

  • Let's take some examples:


    • In a restaurant, the manager seats at the bar, near the checkout drinking and criticizing some employees loudly with big gestures of the hand and with constant signs of annoyance. Claiming a status by a presence that everybody can see and hear !
    • In a big company, the president wants to claim his status of leader with an office on the top floor with a private lift which enables him to go directly from the garage to his office. Of course, no one can have access to that floor without being accompanied bodyguard who has a Magic pass and which is just for a few elected persons proud of having been elected.
      A leadership based on the theory of the ivory tower, insularity. The invisible man !
    • In a country, the leader considered as a « notorious dictator» only gets around in his golden ROLLS, preceded and followed by a cohort of military vehicles equipped with machine guns and accompanied by a bunch of guards armed to the teeth. A very radical way of preventing protest bout his leader status !

    Very far from the real leadership, these three examples illustrate the huge ego of some leaders and their conviction that having power is sufficient to impose their authority. This doesn't last so long…
    POWER ≠ LEADERSHIP

    The real leader is aware that his/her key role consists in guiding, inspiring and developing the autonomy of his/her teams, so that everybody have the same objectives.

    Leadership-

    [color color="#c81056"]>>> The real leader cultivates the example value and affirms his/her leadership with the trust transmitted to the others.

    [color color="#c81056"]>>> He/she believes in her/his teams, encourages them and congratulate them.

    [color color="#c81056"]>>> He/she takes time to explain them the things so that they have the same projects and the same objectives and he/she regularly informs them about the life of the company.

    [color color="#c81056"]>>> He/she doesn't hesitate to say the things or to impose sometimes his/her decisions but never forget to listen to his/her colleagues so it will reinforce the relations with them and their commitment. He/she avoids the reactions in the heat of the moment which lead to negative things and prefers a cold reaction which makes his/her colleague realized in a positive way about the mistake made. The leader admits that mistakes do happen but will know how to react with strength and firmness if the same mistake is made again.

    [color color="#c81056"]>>> He/she generates a team spirit so that internal conflicts are limited and consolidates the feeling of belonging to the company.

    [color color="#c81056"]>>> The leader knows that he/she is not the best in terms of competence and that's why he/she must rely on others'. He/she tries to help everyone to reveal their own potential because this is good for the company.

    [color color="#c81056"]>>> He/she is favorable to delegate some tasks, because he/she knows that this can make his/her colleagues more confident and that way can save time to accomplish other tasks.

    [color color="#c81056"]>>> Like sport is good for the health, practicing a real leadership is also good for the health of the company ! It stimulates he commitment and the loyalty of his/her colleagues, it reduce absenteeism and generates a good ambiance in the heart of the teams which is particularly appreciated by the clients.

    [color color="#c81056"]>>> A good leadership is also good for the health of the leader because the effects he/she produces on the others come back to him/her as positive vibrations.

    So reveal the leader inside you !
