The unfortunate truth is that most individuals and organizations are limiting themselves and performing far beneath their full potential. The question is, why?
At Langley Leadership Group (LLG), we know that success is not measured by an ability to “talk the talk” but rather by a commitment to “walk the walk.” Success begins as soon as you take action to accomplish your goals, so why not start today?
Whether you are a new leader or an established professional, it is vital to master the fundamentals first! Follow the steps below to build a solid foundation that will set you up for success and empower you to reach your maximum leadership potential.
Step 1: Learn to Manage Your Time
Everyone has the same 24 hours. The difference is how you manage yours. Mastering the art of time management will increase your productivity while reducing stress. Effective time management involves prioritizing tasks, setting measurable goals, creating a schedule and staying focused.
Step 2: Learn to Lead Yourself
Until you learn how to lead yourself, you won’t be able to lead anyone else. Personal leadership is the core of an individual’s character, and it encompasses self-image, motivation, attitudes, behaviors and habits. You must be able to identify your strengths and weaknesses in order to determine your best path forward.
Step 3: Learn to Lead Small Groups
The next step is learning how to facilitate smaller, focused groups. In these more intimate settings, you will have opportunities to motivate others and establish teams. This is your chance to cultivate your communication skills and encourage innovation within your sphere of influence.
Step 4: Learn to Lead Large Groups
Once the above foundations are laid, the final step is learning how to lead an entire organization. This stage of leadership involves defining and developing the purpose of the organization, determining key strategies, selecting the right team members and overseeing the processes required for success.
