5 Leadership Myths – Do You Have One of These Beliefs?

Leadership is one of the most discussed topics in the sphere of management. Few leaders, however, speak of this subject because they are busy with their primary business of managing people.

Leadership, however, is a knowing how things should be and how to help people realize their talents and capabilities to make them a reality.

Work experience shows that few organizations tend to their workers potential. The main reason lies within old-fashioned methods of management; fear and an unwillingness to stimulate leaders. This is related to leadership myths around this notion.

Five Leadership Myths

A myth is an idea, which is false but considered to be true. Unfortunately, leadership myths explicated below oftentimes do not help good managers show themselves.

Leadership Myth №1: Leadership is a rare gift that few have.

Many believe that leaders are born, not made. They believe that people are born as leaders and one cannot learn leadership. It is not like that. It is possible after all to learn leadership.

Many people have potential to become good leaders and managers. Just like the majority of other skills, leadership skills require time, training and correction of mistakes to master. [Read more…] about 5 Leadership Myths – Do You Have One of These Beliefs?

Podcast Episode #6 — How to Develop Confidence and Influence

Hello and welcome to the Leadership Done Right Podcast, Episode 6 – How to Develop Confidence and Influence.

[smart_track_player url=”http://traffic.libsyn.com/leadershipdoneright/LDR_005__SMART_Goal_Setting_for_Leaders.mp3″ title=”LDR 006: How to Develop Confidence and Influence” social_linkedin=”true” social_email=”true” permalink=”http://leadershipdoneright.com/podcastepisode6″ tweet_text=”Check out episode #6 of the Leadership Done Right Podcast!” hashtag=”LDRPodcast, #Leadership” twitter_username=”BrandonWJones1″ ]

How to Develop Confidence and Influence

This is one of my favorite quotes from Marianne Williamson and then later used by Nelson Mendela.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

What is confidence?

Confidence is not arrogance. Confidence is belief in oneself and one’s powers or abilities; self-confidence; it’s self-reliance; it’s assurance. When someone has confidence, they know that they can do what it takes to be successful themselves and they can help others to be successful.

When you are the leader, people watch everything you do. They listen to the things you say and watch your body language as you talk to others. People also pay close attention to what you do and don’t do and the daily decisions you make. They pay close attention because they will follow your positive example and base their actions on what they think you feel is acceptable and not acceptable.

Podcast Episode #4 — Why Leaders Should Set a Positive Example

Why Leaders Should Set a Positive Example

Great leaders understand that they set the positive example for those they lead. They know that they cannot expect their followers to do anything they are not willing to do themselves, so they set the best example they can for their followers.

In addition, great leaders realize that everything that happens around them starts with what they do. If they set a positive example, people are more likely to do good while if they set a bad example, others will more likely make poor choices as well.
