Frank Uncovers Excellence in Leadership

© Copyright Frank D. Kanu 2000-2008

Every business is made up of people, and how you treat those people determines how they will treat your customers.

As a good manager you should not only be interested in seeing people grow in what they do but also in who they are.

A Winning Attitude

It is important that you help employees to take ownership—mainly through self-interest. Get individuals to take responsibility for the influence that they have on circumstances around them. And then help them to learn how to use a “positive” attitude to influence those circumstances—so that they lead to increased productivity and profitability.

People Are Never the Problem

Help them understand how they unwittingly contribute to the interpersonal tensions that they experience. Next build strategies together with them to minimize those interpersonal tensions. This leads to a more relaxed lifestyle and work environment where people “play the ball and not the player”. Problems are solved as problems and the people involved still have their dignity intact.
