SP leadership qualities
1. Empower youths
Leader Sundar Pichai describes the strategy as "educating the kids, since they are the
future," "encouraging, and supporting their talents."
Today's youngsters are more concerned about the long-term consequences of their
actions, they have stopped taking chances and attempting new tasks. However, our
leader claims that taking risks might lead to a higher position or teach a person a
valuable lesson.
1. Stay humble and keep learning
Professional and life lessons can occur at any time, so be open to learning in
whatever manner you can. There are always new individuals to meet and new
cultures to learn about, and we may apply what we've learned to our profession. Set
our grit meter to "continuous change" because change is coming at us quicker than
than before, and we need to be resilient and embrace it.
Learning new things on a daily basis and keeping a low profile will always assist a
person in determining his ability to manage any scenario.
Conclusion
We went over the most significant leadership theories in this report. Characteristics essential to be
viewed as a leader and to be successful in the job are identified using trait techniques. Leadership
qualities appear to be intelligence, emotional stability, social competence, openness to experience,
and sincerity. The sorts of behaviors that leaders exhibit are identified using behavioral techniques.
Contingency methods emerged as a result of a failure to pay attention to the situation in which
leadership happens in both trait and behavioral approaches. Ethics has recently become a focal point
of leadership ideas like servant leadership and genuine leadership. It appears that being aware of
one's personal style and ensuring that leaders display behaviors that satisfy employee,organizational,
and stakeholder demands are critical and necessitate flexibility on the part of leaders.
