Most organizations have far too many managers and far too few leaders. Too many people are task experts, but have limited ability to create a compelling vision of success that engages their employees and motivates them to produce outstanding performance that will drive the organization forward and deliver bottom-line results.

People skills are not optional when it comes to leadership. Top leaders welcome objective feedback so they can discover their strengths and weaknesses. They trust their instincts and they are comfortable in their own skins. Leaders practice what they preach, act with confidence, and consistently express gratitude for the hard work and commitment they receive from others.

Leaders do not shy away from conflict, but they always try to resolve tough issues with honest dialogue, persuasion, and collaboration. Less effective leaders mistakenly rely too much on their formal power and authority to try and solve problems and get things done. Real power comes from building bridges and reaching out to others in a way that inspires and enriches all those around you. The best leaders know that the more you focus on helping other people succeed, the more successful you will become.
