To be a successful leader we need to ensure some of these positive traits are nurtured.

• Be Open to Listen:
  • Successful leaders not only give good answers but also listen by asking good questions. Questions asked must help the team improve their creativity and also help in problem solving
• Make Appreciation a Habit:
  • Always show that you value your team and their contributions by giving credit where it is needed. Appreciating genuine work fosters team spirit
• Build your risk appetite:
  • Enable the team to be innovative and bold to take calculated risks. Fear of failure must dissolve to allow for more creativity!
• Treat well:
  • Your team member is not just a skilled resource but remember that they have lives outside work. Bring in the work-life balance to their work lives
• Focus on Strengths:
  • Identify strength of each team member and help them grow in their career
• Set SMART goals:
  • Goals set for your team must be Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and with clear timelines.

So good luck for your ascend to the leadership ladder!! 😊
