How to Be a Good Leader
There are three main things that make a good leader. The first is that a leader must practice what he preaches. The second is that he has to look after and protect those around him. The third is that he must be able to develop other good leaders. I will go into more detail about the qualities of a good leader and what my particular leadership style is.
A good leader is excellent at practicing what he preaches. I love the quote that states, "Your actions speak so loud that I can't hear what you are saying." The greatest leader of all time was Jesus Christ and he was the best at practicing what he preached. This goes back to the old proverb that says, "Live by the sword, die by the sword." This is the same with leadership and how much a leader abides by what he says, As a good leader, how can you expect people do what you say, when you don't even do what you say? So, normally I am a man of my word and makes myself trusted by others.
A good leader should be able to looks after those he wants to lead. He does this by always doing what he can to protect them from harm, criticism, or blame from other people. People want security, that's why they buy SUVs, put money in their 401k, and stay at the same dead end job for years. It's integrated into their nervous system that they want to feel secure. When I have a team of people that I am leading, it can be very powerful when they know that I am on their side, and that I will do whatever I can to make sure that I will protect them from harm of other outside forces. A big part of being a good leader is knowing how to take the blame when things go wrong, and how to give away credit when things go well. And I know that when things go bad or wrong, it's my responsibility to take the blame, even if it was not only my fault. And when things go well, I will make sure that I give the credit to the deserving person who did the great work with me. Hence, making that person look very good.
