Leaders learn leadership from other leaders.
When you Google “Leadership Qualities” a list of over a million hits will appear. You will see a very long list of opinions on qualities, skills, talent etc. Many books have been written about the subject.
In spite of all the evidence companies still lose good leaders because they just do not nurture those individuals who possess the basic traits and qualities of a good leader.
Good leadership is taught, coached and mentored. A good leader sees the company vision, believes in the mission and is passionate about what the company does and where the company is going.
It has been said that when a company loses an employee that has been there for more than two years it’s like burning down a library. All the knowledge and training walks out the door. Even worse it’s now going to your competition!
People do not leave companies, they leave people!
How are you nurturing your future leaders? What are you doing to grow and develop those individuals that your vision and mission depend on for future growth and sustainability?
I welcome your comments.
Positively and successfully,
