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.

her follower. Is given the power to make
decisions alone, having total authority

Autocratic
Democratic or Participative
This type of style involves the leader
including one or more employees in on the
decision process (determining what to do
and how to do it). However, the leader
maintains the final making authority. Using
this style of weakness, rather it is a sign of
strength that your employees will respect.

Democratic
 Delegative or Free Reign
In this style, the leader allows the
employees to make the decision if they are
highly experienced and need little
supervision to obtain the expected outcome.
However, the leader is till responsible for the
decisions that are made. This is used when
employees are able to analyze the situation
and determine what needs to be done and
how to do it.
 Leader

Free reign
A good leader uses all three styles, depending on what forces are
involved between the followers, the leader, and the situation. Some
examples include:

 Using an authoritarian  Using delegative style with

style on a new employee
who is just learning the job.
The leader is competent
and a good coach. The
employee is motivated to
learn a new skill. The
situation is a new
environment for the
employee.
 Using a participative style
with a team of workers who
know their job. The leader
knows the problem, but
does not have all the
information.
a worker who knows more
about the job than you. The
employee needs to take
ownership of her job.
 Using all three: Telling your
employees that a procedure
is not working correctly
and a new one must be
established.
Positive & Negative Approaches

There is a different in ways leader approach

their employee. Positive leaders use rewards,
such as education, independence, etc. to
motivate employees. While negative
emphasize penalties. Keep in mind that
negative approach has a place in a leader’s
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
front of other, etc. They believe their
authorities is increase by freighting
everyone into higher lever of
productivity.
.
Also note that most leaders do not
strictly use one or another, but are
somewhere on a continuum ranging
from extremely positive to extremely
negative. People who is continuously
work out of the negative are bosses
while those who primarily work out of
the positive are considered
