Leadership is like a muscle. The more you practice it and the more you train it, the better and stronger that skill will become. Trust is the fundamental foundation of leadership, if your team do not trust you, they will not follow you and they will not buy into your vision. It is important as a leader that you over communicate and clearly articulate your vision and where you are going, so your team is behind you and prepared to be beside you. Feedback is another important element of leadership. The ability to give feedback in a manner that motivates and inspires your team is a core competency an effective leader, but what is even more important is being able to take feedback and affect change. Inspiring leadership will impact everything in your business and affect your workplace, your team and what people say about you to potential recruits and potential clients. Your behaviour and actions will influence the behaviour and the actions of your team. Through the choices you make you will ultimately be the author of your own book. When you or a member of your leadership group do something or behave in a certain way, you can influence the people around you. Inspiring and elevating other key stakeholders in your business to be good leaders can be done through reminding them that energy is a decision to drive high performance. Leadership | 55
