5 Keys to Leadership
Remember the difference between a boss and a
leader; a boss says "Go!" - a leader says "Let's go!"
~E.M. Kelly
1. A Leader Plans
The core of leadership is being proactive
rather than reactive. Leadership involves
identifying potential problems and solving
them before they reach crisis proportions –
and the ability to identify and reap potential
windfalls. So good leaders analyze and plan
and adapt their plans to new circumstances
and opportunities.
2. A Leader has a Vision
Vision is essential to good leadership.
Vision provides direction and without
direction, there’s not much point to all
that planning.
3. A Leader shares her vision
Sharing your leadership vision
helps your vision grow and your
leadership develop
4. A Leader takes Charge
At this stages of leadership, put together your
planning and your leadership vision and take
action. Whether it’s implementing a specific plan to
improve your business’s bottom line or responding
to a crisis, you as a leader, are the one who makes
the decisions and sees that the appropriate actions
are carried out.
5. A Leader Inspire through
example
Act according to your Authority. A
good leader is a good follower.

There is a different in ways leader approach
their employee. Positive leaders use rewards,
such as education, independence, etc. to
motivate employees. While negative

repertoire of tools, it must be used carefully
due to its high cost on the human spirit.
Negative leaders act domineering and
superior with people. They believe the
only way to get things done is through
penalties, such as loss of job, days off
without pay, reprimand employees in

strictly use one or another, but are
