STRENGTHS BASED LEADERSHIP
Great Leaders, Teams and Why People Follow
MAIN IDEA
After Gallup studied more than 1 million work teams and interviewed 20,000 leaders and
10,000 followers worldwide, it was found the best and most effective leaders do three things well:
To become a better and more effective leader yourself, start by figuring out what your own personal strengths are. Once you know what specific strengths you bring to the table, you can then start working on honing those strengths and enhancing them even further. If you keep at this, you will be doing all you can to become a great leader and if you’re fortunate enough to be in the right place at the right time, you may get involved in projects that live on long after you’re gone. The best leaders always live on because they shape the thoughts and beliefs of the people within their organizations.
“When we invest our financial resources, we understand that it’s best to bet on winning funds, stocks and companies. Most of us know better than to sink all our money into a business that has continually struggled. Yet when we think about how to invest our personal resources, we continue to put more time and energy into perennial losers.
Instead of honing our natural strengths, we strive to fill in what nature left out. The path of great leadership starts with a deep understanding of the strengths you bring to the table.” –
