 "Failure is unimportant. It takes courage to make a fool of yourself." CHARLIE CHAPLIN  Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet confinement of your aloneness to learn anything or anyone that does not bring you alive is too small for you. David Whyte        This is my supplementary blog in which I will post entries written for prompts. |
| Prompt: "A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way and shows the way." Write about this in your Blog entry today. ------------ Surely, "the way" is the most important factor in this quote. The thing is, "the way" changes from situation to situation and, in the business world, from company to company. One of my sons, although he always works in the same kind of business as a leader, each time he changes a company, the company bigwigs require that he attend a hands-on learning period or even a seminar of some kind. I think this is a very astute approach toward the betterment of any company. This shows accountability and decisiveness as good leaders hold themselves and their team responsible for just about everything, to insure the best possible outcomes. A good leader, in fact, inspires and motivates people working under him or her, by applauding successes and pointing to possible improvements and delegates tasks appropriately to trustworthy workers. In doing that, the good leader, himself or herself shows that they, too, are adaptable and resilient as well as being flexible when necessary. Then, integrity and ethical behavior and vision and strategic thinking are all very important, too. An honest, transparent, fair, and always ethical leaders easily earn the respect and loyalty of their co-workers because their strategies lead to positive work environments. To wrap it up, a good leader can and should guide everyone toward a shared success with a blend of vision, understanding and integrity. In fact, this is "the way" what the quote is talking about. |
