| “The Key to success is to lead others successfully.”
What level of leadership are you
on: (Everyone is at a certain level)
Leadership can be taught, but we
first must know where we are:
Levels:
1. The person who works
better with people is a follower.
2. The person who helps people work
better is a manager.
3. The person who develops better
people to work is a leader.
People don’t want to be managed, they
want to be lead! Leadership means: influence and the ability
to attain followers, nothing more and nothing less.
Think right now who your power of
influence is and why? And how did they achieve that respect and ability?
If you want to grow as a leader,
that only comes with effective change. There are steps in leadership:
1. Position:
This is the title step. Basic entry level and appointed to position.
Real leadership is NOT authority but leadership/influence.
2. Permission: Example
“People get together just to get together” Lead by interrelationships.
3. Production: Follower
admires leader. Good things begin to happen…momentum and problems
are solved.
4. People Development:
Follower’s loyal to leader. People follow because of what the leader
has taught. Ability to empower others and developing others.
Win hearts by helping others grow personally. Is this what Arbonne
is about? Are you at this level?
5. Personhood: Follow
the leader because of who she/he is. This is attained over a long
period of time. Does more than what is expected.
Goals as a leader: Predetermined
worthwhile goals are essential to the leader’s success.
Where is your time spent: 20%
of priorities give 80% of production!!
To increase Leadership:
1. Determine which are your
top 20% producers
2. Spend 80% of time with top 20%
3. Spend 80% of your dollars on
top 20%
4. 20% of work will give 80% of
return
5. Ask top 20% to do on the job
training for next 20%
* Most people do not know how
to be successful:
Success is really the result of planning.
It happens where preparation and opportunity meet. Success is not
a moment but a process and a journey. Success is learning from failure.
The more we fail, the more successful we are! Failure is only real
when we learn from it. Someone said once “Success is relative.
Once you have it, all the relatives want it.”
What motivates people?
-
Significant contributions.
People want to join in a group with lasting impact. Motivation comes
not by activity alone, but by the desire to reach the end results.
-
Goal participation. People
support what they create. Goal setting processes allow people to
feel needed and to know they can make a difference. Goal participation
builds team spirit, enhances morale, and helps everyone feel important.
-
Positive dissatisfaction.
Dissatisfaction is a one-word definition for motivation. Dissatisfied
people are highly motivated for they see a need for immediate change.
The key is to harness this energy toward effective change.
-
Recognition. People want
credit for their achievements and contributions. It is a way of giving
meaning to a person’s existence.
-
Clear expectations. Motivation
rises in a job when the goals, expectations, and responsibilities are clearly
understood.
-
Am I a good listener? Do
I have good people skills? Sometimes we need to listen to what people
do not say.
When you put a baby shark in an aquarium
it will fully develop to the size of the tank. You can take that
same shark and put it in the ocean and just look at what the shark becomes…A
GIANT! Are you swimming in an aquarium or growing and learning in
the vast ocean? Be all that you can be with Arbonne! |
