Learn and Use the 10 Positive Habits All Great Leaders Have

Perhaps the best place to start is by asking what makes a great leader. What is the end goal here? What are you aspiring to?

When we think of great leaders, we will often think of inspiring superhero types. People with heroic, puffed out chests, powerful voices and a cool air of confidence. They always know the right thing to do and they have the uncanny ability to reel off motivational and inspiration speeches at the drop of a hat. No one ever defies these great leaders because they don’t want to – the leaders are so just and wise that they have no need. But if anyone ever did cross them, they would be immediately put to rights with a stern but fair judgement and unquestionable authority. These are the leaders that make us feel safe, that steer our ships through uncharted waters and that make us feel like we can do anything as a team. These are the heroes taken straight out of the Saturday morning cartoons you probably watched as a child (which, by the way, are based very much on our Father and Mother archetypes).

Now the chances are that you probably have known a few people like this in your lifetime. Perhaps you have a parent who really is that wise, all-knowing figure. Or maybe you had a teacher that inspired you when you were younger and helped you to make the career choices that led you to where you are today.

You might also know of some famous real-life characters who fit this bill. Perhaps you know of a few celebrities who you look up to, or a few historical characters even.

But for the most part, this is not the reality of what makes a good leader. While all these things could certainly help you to inspire followers, they are certainly not necessary for you to become an effective leader. And it’s just as well - as that would be an awful lot of pressure to put on yourself!

So what does make a good leader? What is the minimum entry requirement?

Of course this is a somewhat abstract concept and not one that can be satisfied with a simple answer. But let’s give it the best shot.

Ultimately, the best leader is the leader who gets results. And they do this by organizing, stabilizing and motivating a team to get more out of them than they would be able to accomplish on their own. So, put simply: does having this leader in place make a big difference to the team’s ability to accomplish goals?

One of my employees, a pretty successful sales rep came to me asking that he be considered for an open management position. He was an okay employee, did his job well, seemed to be liked by his peers but had never shown any interest in management. He really wasn’t a team player, had never gone out of his way to help another employee unless it served his own purposes and generally gave the impression he just wanted to be left alone. He would always question every directive and generally tried to do everything his way or not at all. As long as his sales numbers were acceptable, I felt I could overlook the problems he caused. I was taken aback by his seemingly sudden interest in management. He was never noticed because he had never shown any leadership qualities.

If you want to get noticed at work and position yourself for leadership and management in you future then you need to start looking like a leader.  In this course I will share with you 10 personal traits all great leaders have.  Start implementing them in your daily life and you will get noticed.
