Thing Leaders Don't Do

 

Things leaders don’t do!

 

Great leaders:

1.    Don’t settle; they exceed.

2.    Don’t talk as much as they listen.

3.    Don’t hoard; they share.

4.    Don’t belittle; they praise.

5.    Don’t build walls; they open doors.

Outstanding leaders:

1.    Don’t hope for dreams to come true; they make them come true.

2.    Don’t require allegiance; they build loyalty.

3.    Don’t demand respect; they earn it.

4.    Don’t react; they anticipate.

5.    Don’t criticize; they teach.

 

Precious few leaders:

1.    Don’t build legacies; they build leaders.

2.    Don’t hang on; they know when it’s time to leave.

3.    Don’t need recognition; they acknowledge the contributions of others.

4.    Don’t fear diversity; they seek it.

5.    Don’t define themselves by title; but by results.
