DELEGATE (Questions 1 and 13)

A leader obsessed with performing all the tasks by his/her own is anything else but a leader. A true leader knows his/her team to the extent he is able to entrust them tasks according to the efficiency level he can obtain because of the joint set of skills and competences of whole his/her team (including himself). Properly delegation tells a lot of you, as it means you know how to prioritize actions and manage resources.

PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT (Questions 18 and 20)

Performance management aims to achieve the objectives of the organization along with performance indicators agreed by employees based on their skills, competences and development plans. But measuring is not all. The most important thing is to establish clear parameters, failure to do so can thicken the statistic that 3 out of 10 companies define mistaken performance indicators that doesn’t improve performance. Don’t make the same mistake!

EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE (Questions 2 and 14)

Emotional intelligence is “something” within each of us that is somewhat intangible. However it affects our behavior, our social relations and influence the way we make personal choices, so it can balance towards positive or negative results. Hence, a true leader should properly manage the emotions of his/her team and especially his/her own emotions. Emotional intelligence is the essence of success along with cooperation. It is not easy to be emotionally intelligent, but it is possible!

STRATEGIC VISION (Questions 3 and 11)

A leader can’t waist time focused on everyday issues. His/her vision must be focused in the long term and taking always considering the mission, vision and values ​​of the organization. However it must be agile enough to adapt to the changes of the environment, the industry and the organization itself. The ability to cope with change, but above all, to anticipate change and be prepared accordingly, strengthen leadership and offers serenity and confidence to the teams.

SELF-CONFIDENCE (Questions 4 and 15)

You may sometimes feel persuaded by someone who speaks with great clarity, by someone who maintains the head high while debating, by someone who responds assertively, or maybe by someone who honestly admits that he/she doesn’t know something. People with great self-confidence strongly engage with those around them, colleagues, employees, customers, suppliers and bosses. Be trusted by others is one of the keys to succeed.

SUPPORT AND MOTIVATION (Questions 6 and 9)

Motivation encourages desirable behaviors. Of course not every day collective environment may be the same, so the true leader must maintain a high level of motivation to encourage people’s empowerment, commitment to work and a collaborative environment. Regardless of the working environment of your organization, every leader is responsible for his/her own area of ​​influence and therefore his/her teams must be motivated. Developing this skill requires a lot of practice but it’s worth the effort.

POSITIVE THINKING (Questions 7 and 16)

Positive thinking doesn’t mean to be smiling the entire day. In the last decade it has been proved that unlike the negative thinking, which actually affects attention and concentration, positive thinking foster those skills and further strengthen communication, helps you to visualize solutions and encourages others to do so. It also increases the sense of responsibility and willingness to offer support to others and reaffirms the determination to achieve goals. A leader can’t be leader without positive thinking.

PROMOTE GROWTH (Questions 8 and 17)

The success of the leader lies in his/her interdependence. A leader who doesn’t promote, or even worse, inhibits the growth of his/her own employees is doomed to failure. The strength of a leader lies in being able to move their pieces like a chess player does; but trying to win a game only with “pawns” is a disadvantage that directs to failure for sure. Training and sharing knowledge and best practices within team members and leader are crucial. Pawns are important but you will need rooks, bishops and knights!

EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION (Questions 10 and 12)

Communicating is more than just exchanging information. Communication should be simple but not austere. Be close to your team and remains alert about symptoms of distorted information, and above all learn how to actively listening. Remember that, as a sender, you don’t have the key role in terms of communication, but the receivers; therefore give them priority. Additionally, effective communication, including communicating rules, offers to the leaders the ability to persuade, build trust and promote opportunities for sharing information where the receivers adopt the important issues.

SELF-LEARNING (Questions 5 and 19)

Growth only occurs being modest. An arrogant leader thinks he knows everything, and unfortunately, he/she lives in a world that doesn’t lead to success. Make no mistake, no one learns only from his/her bosses, trainers, or teachers; learning comes from all people who cross your path in an ordinary day of your professional activities. Also, constant coaching and consulting are tools which are essential for a leader to continue growing and adding value to his/her organization. Keep up with your training!
