Leader 360 ►

The Essence of Leadership

Leadership is about creating powerful human currents – including your own – moving

enthusiastically in a right direction. As a leader, you must envision the future, passionately

believe that you can make a difference, and inspire people to achieve more than they may ever

have dreamed possible.

Lead Yourself

To make real changes and lead others, you have to lead yourself first. This is actually your

greatest hallege ad oe of the ost iportat thigs youll eer do as a leader . If you lead

yourself well, then you will earn the right to lead others.

Lead Your Peers

How to get things done when you are not the boss and telling others what to do is ineffective?

Lead laterally, help people around you achieve more and shine. Invite colleagues to work with

you to solve problems creatively, and achieve a common goal. Focus on improving the processfor finding solutions and working together.

Lead Your Boss

As organizations decentralize, virtually any company can benefit from more upward leadership.

Leading-up is about leading your boss, helping your supervisor to see the right goal and find the

right path before it is too late.

Lead Your Subordinates

Lead by example and help your people develop into leaders themselves. Empower, inspire and

energize them. Be a coach for your people. Don't assume you know it all. Seek ideas from all

team members. Ask questions and solicit suggestions. Be empathic and compassionate, and

people will choose you to lead them.

Self-Leadership►

Vision and Stretch Goals

Self-leadership is an extensive set of strategies focused on the behaviors, thoughts, and feelings

that you use to exert influence over yourself.

To lead yourself, create an inspiring vision and set goals for your life. You vision will lead you.

Set stretch goals, and your goals will stretch you.

Creative Visualization

Visualization is the first step to bringing a dream to life. See yourself the way you want to be.

Imagine a life that is exactly as you want it. What would you do each day? With whom would

you do it?

Use your imagination to create a clear image, idea or feeling sense of your goal. When you see

your goal in your mind, you engage the power of your subconscious mind that will help you

build winning habits and bring your dream to life.

Take Action

Now, take initiative and start moving towards your goals. Challenge assumptions, champion

change, take risk and experiment. And remember, there is no failure, only feedback. Ask

learning SWOT questions and restart wiser. Fail small to succeed big.

Continuous Learning

The two key ingredients of achievement are preparation and an opportunity. In today's rapidly

changing World, knowledge becomes obsolete and new opportunities emerge very fast. So the

key to success is not what you know, but how fast you can learn. Learn continuously, for if you

stop learning, you stop creating history and become history. Be a lifelong learner, and be

passionate about it.

Leaderships Attributes ►

Leaders Attributes Defined

Leadership attributes are the inner or personal qualities that constitute effective leadership.

These attributes include a large array of characteristics such as values, character, habits, traits,

competencies, motives, style, behaviors, and skills.

Three Categories of Leadership Attributes (The ARE-KNOW-DO Model)

• Who leaders ARE: character and personality, values, motives, abilities, traits,

commitment, honesty, courage, imagination.

• What leaders KNOW: competencies (knowing yourself and others, leadership theory,

professional knowledge) and skills (people skills, leadership skills, professional skills)

• What leaders DO: habits, behaviors, styles, leading by example.

Key Elements of Leadership Attributes

Most of the leadership attributes cluster into four overarching categories of what you need to

be, know, and do:

1. Demonstrate personal character;

2. Set directions;

3. Mobilize individual commitment;

4. Engender organizational capability.

Pitfalls of the Leadership Attributes Model

Though leadership attributes models, in particular the ARE-DO-KNOW approach, received

enormous attention in the past, they have a number of pitfalls. In particular, they reduce

leadership improvement to development of leader's attributes only. Results are notemphasized.

Leading a Team►

1. Provide purpose. Everything starts with vision. You cannot have a real team without

one because people will not find the desire to achieve the common goal. The team

members will work together only if they can see what they're working toward.

2. Build a star team, not a team of stars. Teach people to cooperate to make a team a

winning team, and thus all of them winners. Establish shared values and an

environment oriented to trust, joint creativity, and cohesive team effort.

3. Establish shared ownership for the results. Start with yourself – share your own

individual results with the team. Shared responsibility is better achieved if the

reward system has a significant element that is dependent on the overall outcome.

4. Develop team members to fullest potential. Bring out the best in your people. Lead

by setting a good example. Train, coach and provide effective feedback.

5. Make the work interesting and engaging. Create enjoyable work environment.

Encourage entrepreneurial creativity, risk-taking, and continuous improvement.

6. Develop a self-managing team. Be a superleader who shows team leaders how to

lead themselves. Don't give direct commands or instructions, use questions and

coaching instead. Empower people, trust them, rely on their judgment..

7. Motivate and inspire team members. Be enthusiastic, inspire and energize people.

Set stretch goals. Recognize and celebrate team and team member

accomplishments and exceptional performance

8. Lead and facilitate constructive communication. Communicate in a truthful and

believable way. Encourage open communication and improvement suggestions.

Project Leader►

Creating and Leading a High-Performing Team

Project management provides a foundation for the art of leadership. The best project managers

are also outstanding leaders.

Creating a high-performing team takes commitment on the part of the project leader to leadboth the project management and team processes. You need to be a good facilitator, helping

the team work through the steps of these processes.

While developing your team and mastering teamwork, you'll need to hold regular team

meetings so that team members can monitor progress and solve problems as they arise. You

may also want to focus on your team skills, such as: Holding effective meetings; motivating and

communicating; providing constructive feedback; resolving conflicts; making team decisions;

and recognizing accomplishments and celebrating success.

Evolving Entrepreneurial Role of the Project Manager

Today project leaders have to go beyond the traditional project delivery practices and masterthe business systems approach. This new system requires thinking of the project as a business

enterprise and managing the project as a business venture. Thus you have to consider not only

the success of the project itself but also the success of the project outcome. You need to

understand how your organization creates value for its major stakeholders – shareholders,

customers, and the business team, and also take responsibility for delivering that value.

The new role of a project leader requires an ultimate knowledge of the strategy the project is

supporting. The entrepreneurial approach to project management essentially expands two

dimensions of the project management process – time and boundaries. Considering the project

outcome and its lifecycle expands time beyond the traditional horizon of project completion.

Project boundaries are also expanded.

Entrepreneurial Leader ►

Entrepreneurial Leadership Defined

In the increasingly turbulent and competitive environment business firms face today, a new

type of "entrepreneurial" leader distinct from other behavioral forms of managerial leadership

is required. Entrepreneurial leadership is leadership that is based on the attitude that the

leader is self-employed. Leaders of this type:

• take initiative and act as if they are playing a critical role in the organization rather than

a mostly important one and energize their people,

• demonstrate entrepreneurial creativity, search continuously for new opportunities and

pursue them,

• take risk, venture into new areas and provide strategic direction and inspiration to their

people,

• take responsibility for the failures of their team, learn from these failures and use them

as a step to ultimate success and strategic achievement.

Entrepreneurial leadership involves instilling the confidence to think, behave and act with

entrepreneurship in the interests of fully realizing the intended purpose of the organization to

the beneficial growth of all stakeholders involved.

Key Benefits

Entrepreneurial leadership is not a position, it is a process. The entrepreneurial leader takes

responsibility to assist the organization in creating such conditions so that, instead of being

controlled, the entrepreneurial organization generates its own order and responds creatively to

the environment. This role is not only more productive for the organization, it is liberating for

the leader as well. By helping to unleash the creative potential of their organizations,entrepreneurial leaders are unleashing their own.

Leading Change ►

Leadership Perpetuum Mobile:

Change creates leaders, leaders create change.

Lead Change

Successful change requires leadership. When change fails to occur as planned, the cause is

often to be found at a deeper level, rooted in the inappropriate behavior, beliefs, attitudes, and

assumptions of would-be leaders.

Leadership is all about the process of change: how to stay ahead of it, master it, benefit from

the opportunities it brings. The best leaders strike first by taking the offensive against economic

cycles, market trends, and competitors. They discover the most effective ways for achieving

significant change.

Leading, Not Managing

The amount of change in organizations has grown tremendously over the past decades, and the

rate of change will only accelerate in the years to come. No wonder change, and leadership

through change, are foremost concerns of CEOs today.

Twenty-first century business change must overcome overmanaged and underled cultures.

Because management deals mostly with the status quo and leadership deals mostly with

change, organizations have to become much more skilled at creating leaders.

Yes, managing change is important. Competent management is required to keep change efforts

on track. But for most organizations, the much bigger challenge is leading change. Only

leadership can blast through the many sources of corporate inertia and resistance to change.

Only leadership can motivate new actions needed to alter behavior in any significant way. Only

leadership can change the organizational culture in order to get change to stick.

Leading Innovation and Growth ►

Leading the Jazz of Innovation: Top 10 Tips

1. Provide strategic alignment. Create an inspiring vision and launch a crusade. Link the

innovation strategy with corporate vision, goals, objectives, and strategy.

2.

Define the innovation process publicly. Help people understand how they fit into thesystem as a whole. Document your innovation process explicitly via maps and charts.

3. Establish a creative chaos environment to inspire creativity and trigger accidental

discoveries. Find the right balance between order and chaos.

4. Challenge assumptions. Think outside-the-box. Ask searching questions "Why?" and

"What If?" to identify hidden problems and opportunities. Brainstorm every day.

5. Cross-pollinate ideas. Establish diverse cross-functional innovation teams. Encourage

comments and ideas. Inspire advocates and critics. Change hats to evaluate ideas.

6. Stimulate and reward idea generation. People want to know their ideas make a

difference. Recognition encourages people to participate and make contributions.

7. Experiment to pursue opportunities, acquire new skills, learn from feedback and

discover new opportunities. Create prototypes to visualize and test your ideas, inspire

new ideas.

8. Allow freedom to fail. Failure provides a great learning opportunity and should be

viewed as very lifeblood of success. Learn from failures, regroup, and start again more

intelligently.

9. Measure the progress to take a corrective action and accelerate the pace of ideas to

implementation.10. Make business fun to make people excited about what they are doing, working as a

team, and tackling new challenges.
