Leadership - Lists and Values

VALUES & GUIDELINES
Establish and communicate your core values. Know your mission statement and stick to those guidelines!  

PEOPLE COPY WHAT YOU DO (not necessarily what you say)
Always model and reward:

• Positive and clear communication
• Consistency
• Coachability
• Integrity 
• Sensible time management 

TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!
Great leaders remember to invest first in themselves, always working on personal development and humility.

DAILY TO DOs
Great leaders

• Communicate with their teams
• Recognize their team members' achievments
• Encourage teams to work together

LOOKING A BIT DEEPER
Just as you studied your potential mentor -- so will your team obseve you. 

Here are some thought provoking questions to ask yourself -- your team will surely use the same criterion.

• Is this someone you aspire to be like? 
• Is this someone that you can follow, model and be proud to work with?  

How about this . . . .  Is this someone you want your children to be around, aspire to be like, model behavior of? 

GODFATHER WISDOM
Great leaders "go to the mattresses" *1 for their teams.
