Would they honestly say the same?

Remember: Respect is like trust—hard to gain and easily lost.

The test of leadership is not to put greatness into humanity, but to elicit it, for the greatness is already there

17. Only Give Tribute to a Chosen Few

Now, there will always be some who will perform so outstandingly that they just seem to generate more praise than others. There’s no question: It’s important to recognize truly outstanding efforts. But everyone has the potential to go above and beyond in some area. Watch for each follower’s strengths and find something to praise.

Are you watching that praise is not get to the heads of those praised?

Remember: There are many ways to motivate, but praise is the least common for adults.

It’s The Leaders Job to Make Decisions, Not Friends.

Enhance Your Leadership Skills

16. Be Everybody’s Darling

Some think having only friends is better than having followers. But in reality they either surrounded themselves with yes Sayers or have no followers at all. And the same is true when you only say yes to those that you follow.

What is your objective: To lead or to gain friends?

Remember: It’s the leaders job to make decisions, not friends.
