Tips on LEADERSHIP SKILLS

As we all know, leaders should at all times present themselves with great confidence and self-control.
We must learn to master ourselves as Lao Tzu says, "Mastering others is strength, mastering yourself is true power". During important business meeting if you are not comfortable with yourself, how can you be comfortable when you are around other people? This is what portrays true leadership skills.

1. Listen & Understand others:
Anyone in an executive position must first learn to understand others before achieving organizational objectives. When you seek to understand the needs of others, they will return the favor in an amazing way.

2. Involve all Stakeholders in group discussion:
Involvement of all parties in setting plans leads to harmonization of group objectives which is aided and enhanced by effective communication. Leadership skills require you as a leader to find common goals among members. This can best be achieved when everybody feels that they have contributed and not when they feel like they have been left out or manipulated.

Having leadership skills is all about service, humility and motivation.

Great leaders stimulate minds and develop potentials. The strongest weapon is neither nuclear nor atomic but the will to fight.

3. Include Fresher(s) in your Team:
It would be much better to opt for a team of average qualified personnel who are eager to produce results than have a group of bored but highly qualified professionals.

4. Appreciate Team Members:
One must learn to appreciate the efforts and skills of his teammate / subordinates by manner of rewards and other incentives. A person with good leadership skills does not use dictatorship, but instead he/she is full of humility and respect.

5. MOTIVATE:
GREAT LEADERS motivate team members in such a way that that the team has to do the task because they themselves want it to be done.
