Keep it simple
As a leader it’s critical to have a clear-cut plan and set goals. Keep the goals simple, brief and achievable. For many of us, having too many goals can be overwhelming and can actually thwart our efforts to achieve success.
Take ownership
Convey confidence and be sure to communicate the big picture. Don’t assume your team knows what the picture is – take responsibility for keeping them informed on current or changing goals through periodic updates. Be honest about the headwinds that you may face and share your thoughts on how to overcome them.
Reward your employees
Adopt an attitude of gratitude. Take care of your team members — thank them for a job well done, pass credit along freely to others and praise in public. Remember to also take responsibility for failures and don’t ever play the “blame game.” As a leader, you are ultimately responsible for the results of your team so you need to own both the successes and any potential shortfalls.
Create a transparent work environment
Develop a team environment where people feel comfortable speaking openly and challenging each other. This starts at the top — with you — as the leader of the team. Establish a positive, harmonious office environment and you’ll reap the rewards of being surrounded by happy employees who want to work hard, do the right thing and succeed.
Manage by example to guide your team to the vision you believe in.
The way a team plays as a whole determines its success. You may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the world, but if they don't play together, you are wasying your time.
Team work makes the dream work
Be very confident, but yet very humble. You should know that you made it there because you have all the required skills and attributes, its time to lay down your own footsteps. Take enough time to plan, as a well structured plan constitutes the solid base of a flawless execution.
Learn from everybody, everybody is important including your surbodinates.
