Listen to your team and find what it takes to get your team to listen to you.
In order to assume a leadership role in a team, one should be himself, genuine, simple and honest. He must actively listen before he speaks. He should encourage team to give feedback and take initiative. He needs to provide regular feedback to his people to enable them to improve and grow. He has to have the ability to listen, think, foresee, understand, and act. He should possess skills like planning and organizing, creativity and flexibility. He must have a vision and the passion to pursue that vision. He should complement and reward people on the good performance. He has to trust, support and respect his people. He must be able to delegate tasks to his team to enable them to develop and improve. He should accept responsibility for actions, results and decisions. He needs also to demonstrate a sincere interest in his people’s ideas and insights. Finally, he needs to engage and communicate well with his people using their names and appropriately using humor.
