Essentials Of FINEST Leadership

You have determined, you are ready, and fit, to serve in some position of leadership. You've either, been elected, selected, or ascend to the position, yet, how will you pursue, your effort, with the goals and intents, of being the FINEST leader, you are capable of being? In my over 4 decades of identifying, qualifying, training, developing, and consulting to, thousands of actual, and/ or, potential leaders, I have come to realize, there are few, who actually go on, to become meaningful leaders. With that in mind, this article will attempt to briefly, consider, review, and discuss, using the mnemonic approach, some of the necessities, and focuses, to pay attention to.

1. Face facts; future; furnish; fruition: You can't bury, your head, in the sand, and hope, to make any difference, for the better! Rather than denial, quality leaders, face the facts, and seek solutions, to overcome obstacles and challenges! They don't merely, look to create, any short - term, band - aid, plans, but rather, focus on relevant, sustainable programs, to bring the group, to the future. To do so, they must be able to furnish genuine leadership, and persist, consistently, towards bringing the finest possibilities, to fruition!

2. Integrity; imagination; ideas; ideology: Will you maintain absolute integrity, and combine this, with a relevant imagination, in order to introduce relevant ideas, which align with the ideology, of the organization? How will you ensure, you are ready, willing, and able, to pursue the finest possibilities?

3. Needs: You are only leading, when/ if, you focus on needs, goals, priorities, etc, which make a significant difference, for the best interests of your group, and constituents! It's not about, looking, and/ or being busy, but, rather, doing something about it!

4. Empathy; emphasis; energize; excellence: You need to proceed, with an emphasis on effectively listening, and consistently learning, from every experience, and conversation, in order to lead, in a manner, which energizes, your stakeholders! When you combine this, with a clear focus on excellence, in everything you do, and pursue, you make fine results, more possible!

5. Service; system; sustainable system: Genuine leaders introduce a system, focused on quality service, for the common good, rather than any personal/ political agenda, and/ or, self - interest! A relevant program/ plan, must include planning, focused on creating the finest, sustainable system!

6. Timely: There is no place for procrastination, if you wish, to be a quality leader! Every effort, must emphasize, well - considered, timely action!

Hopefully, this brief discussion, will help you focus on providing the FINEST leadership. Will you proceed, with this, goal, and focus?
