As discussed, leadership is all about personal development, and it is not given by others.
How to develop your leadership capabilities?
It consists of 4 steps.
1.Personal leadership or leading yourself
2.Ensuring cordial Relationship with others or leading others
3.Performance or delivering results
4.Developing others as a leader
This step is applicable for everyone at ANY stages of the life cycle.
For example, if you a "business head," you need to develop your leadership qualities by continuously working on those four steps.
If you are entering into the professional ladder as “ Trainee,” you have to develop your leadership capabilities continuously on those steps
On a personal front, if you are entering from "Bachelor to spouse role or spouse to father /mother," you have to develop your family leadership qualities based on those steps only.
It is a continuous improvement journey throughout life. There is no guarantee that as Manager you exhibited good leadership qualities would help you at General Management level. Each level or position calls for the development of different leadership capabilities.
As mentioned earlier, the leadership capabilities could be your thought process, attitude, words, actions and results and how it lifts your surroundings, your organizations, your teams and your personal and family quality of life.
Also, you observe that the development from one step to another step is sequential.but, in reality, it is parallel development only. We can not wait for PERFECT personal development to get into the next step of RELATIONSHIP building.
The point is you need to be conscious enough to develop yourself, your relationship quality, your performance and your effort in developing others on a continuous basis.
Let us discuss each step and its components in next week.
