A Vision
|
The leader's vision clearly describes how things will be when everything is as it should be. Once the vision is communicated and shared, everyone will be working to the same end for the good of themselves and their organisation.
|
Emotional Intelligence
|
All leaders will apply their intellect to the job of leading. But the best of ongoing research shows that emotional intelligence is as valid as cognitive intelligence in producing successful leadership.
Being emotionally intelligent means:
- understanding your own emotions and how they affect others
- having self confidence and self control
- living your values
- adapting to different situations
- thinking and acting creatively and with innovation
- being optimismistic
- promoting good relationships
- influence others for the good
