Exceptional Leadership

Being an exceptional leader requires
  • Being genuine (aka authentic)
  • Being both self-aware and aware of the challenges of those who report to you will allow you to lead with empathy
  • Communicating with directness and honesty, especially in the difficult issues and tough decisions
  • Being a great listener and taking time to tell people what they “need” to hear versus what they “want” to hear
  • It’s not about your success but about making others achieve their potential.  If you do that, you’ll be incredibly successful
