You most likely won’t see happiness in a job description for a leader. However, it is a quality that makes a big difference in your ability to lead. Happy leaders are more resilient under pressure, they tend to be more focused and are usually more approachable. Understanding how to be more happy can make you a better leader.

There are at least two benefits to listening as a leader. The first is the potential to hear something important. The second, is in the message it sends that you want to listen – or in other words, that you care.

Do you do team building? 3 important things to remember.

3 Things to Remember for Better Team Building Activities



Why do team building activities fail? Answer: Most lack planning. A leader, for example, decides that his or her team needs to be more cohesive. It is agreed upon that the team will do some team building. So they hire a “team building expert” to come in and do some activities.

Leaders are servants. Try asking someone you lead next time “What can I do to better serve you?” It is a very different question than, “What do you need from me?” Our job as leaders is to support and help those we lead shine. Agree?

We do not live alone—in our city, our nation, or our world. There is no dividing line between our prosperity and our neighbor’s wretchedness. ‘Love thy neighbor’ is more than a divine truth. It is a pattern for perfection. ~Thomas S. Monson

FORGIVE. Humble leaders forgive. Employees make mistakes, and Leaders understand that and coach instead of condemn.
