One of the greatest challenges, many potential leaders confront, is an internal one, and the willingness, and ability, to admit, to themselves, effective leadership doesn't merely happen, but, rather, requires several steps, a keen commitment, and sincere dedication, to proceeding, with respect, for the PROCESS. If one hopes to achieve, in the best, possible manner, he must proceed, forward, with the mindset, of honoring this process, and achieving, the finest possible results! With that in mind, this article will attempt to briefly consider, examine, discuss, and identify, using the mnemonic approach, why this is so essential, to being a quality leader.
1. Priorities; planning; procedure: A leader must begin, by considering the needs, goals, etc, of his group, and developing relevant priorities, which might best address these, in the best possible way! Effective leadership planning is never a one - step, procedure, but, rather, requires a commitment to a disciplined process, in order to achieve one's objectives, in a relevant, sustainable manner.
2. Relevant; responsible; responsive; realistic: Don't bury, your head, in the sand, but rather, plan, in a realistic, responsive way! Unless/ until, one proceeds in a relevant manner, he is not being a responsible leader!
3. Options; opportunities; open - minded; organized; opinions: When one maintains an open - mind, he fully considers and examines the options and alternatives! One must recognize and be prepared, to take advantage of the finest, most appropriate, opportunities! However, to achieve, in a quality way, one must become, as organized, as possible, and have the self - confidence, to articulate well - intentioned, opinions!
4. Character; clarity; coordinate: A leader must possess the intangible quality, often referred to, as strength of character! When this is combined, with well - considered, clarity, and an ability, to coordinate, to the best interests, of his constituents, the ability to effectively lead, becomes far more possible!
5. Empathy; emphasis; endurance; excellence: The utmost excellence requires genuine empathy, so as to be able, to place his emphasis, as it should be focused! However, it's important to recognize, this does not happen overnight, but, often requires commitment and endurance!
6. System; service: If you hope to be a leader, you must utilize a system, based on providing the most relevant, meaningful service, for those you serve and represent!
7. Strengthen; sustainable solutions: It's easier to blame and complain, about the past, than to proceed, forward, in a way, which will strengthen the organization. One must consider potential ramifications, needs, etc, and introduce quality, sustainable solutions!
Will you honor the PROCESS of being a quality leader? Are you up to the task?
