ORIGINAL POST
Lead-up principle #1 resonated with me on a personal level. over the past few months I have been trying to find ways to have a more productive and fulfilled life. I realized that I struggled with listening or managing my words so I’ve made it apart of my daily habits to listen more and speak less. Managing my time, managing my emotions and managing my thinking has been my ongoing battles this year that I have been actively trying to work on therefore these points hit home for me on a personal level.
I have realized in recent years that a manager that has a life outside of the organization for example: wife, kids, hobbies, family and friends leads differently that a leader who seems to have no personal life outside of work.
One of the managers I have encountered in my lifetime that that I found myself looking up to and seeking mentorship from is a leader that no matter how bad a situation is I never saw him loosing his cool. I always wondered how he chooses his words so wisely and never seemed to act out of character. I have seen this leader in very heated situations where he listened carefully and deescalated the situation even when the other party was being disrespectful towards him. One of the main reasons I enjoyed working for this leader even though our working conditions were not the most desirable was because of how he never missed an opportunity to show his gratitude towards his staff. I believe that appreciation and gratitude is one of the characteristics of a good leader.
