communicate with them.

What Makes a Great Leader?

Even though there are many styles of leadership, you can judge if one certain approach works or
not by one simple metric: is that leader getting the outcome he or she wants?

Specifically, it's about the purpose and the people: is the goal set out by them being achieved, and
are the people they're leading happy as they work towards that goal?
To do these, a great leader has to be someone who can identify and strike the right balance between
what are usually two opposing ideas.

Here are what those balances look like:

1. Communicating top-down, but also bottom-up

Leaders have to be great communicators. They have to talk to the people they're leading
regularly and have a consistent message that resonates. This is what
creates alignment and trust between people.

Empathy is also important when it comes to leadership. As Kate Pritchard, a consultant

specialized in leadership management and employee engagement, told us, "To improve
engagement, leaders need to demonstrate that they care about their employees, to listen to them,
involve them, and respond to their views".

The feeling of collaboration is essential. Everyone wants to feel like they're contributing
something, that they're not just a cog in the wheel or a robot taking orders.
📙 Top 5 Communication Skills and How to Improve Them
Leaders create the space for that kind of contribution and empower the people they lead to
accomplish that through upward feedback. They have the ability to make those people around
them feel bigger and bolder. It's about the people they lead, not about themselves.

2. Having strong convictions, but continuing to learn

Balancing communicating well with taking in feedback goes hand in hand with having strong ideals
while being willing to put those head-to-head with new data points you're taking in.

3. Risk-taking, but not reckless

Because leaders have conviction around some idea or some insight into how the world works,
they're willing to make bets on that.
"Great leaders dare to be different. They don't just talk about risk-taking; they actually do it. And
one of the leaders shared with me the fact that the most impactful development comes when you
are able to build the emotional stamina to withstand people telling you that your new idea is
naïve or reckless or just plain stupid."

4. Ability to influence others

Leaders need to be able to influence other people through authentic and transparent
communication. This is why many organizations today are engaging leadership in workplace
communications, and making it an important part of their corporate communications
strategy. 
Leaders should be the role models and continuously encourage others to live by the core
company values and align with the ultimate business goals.

5. Building trust and transparency

Building trust and driving transparency is one of the most important leadership characteristics.
Today, employees expect their leaders to be trustworthy and share all the important
information and company updates.

Instead of hiding information and leaving employees in the dark, a great leader should openly
communicate about everything that is going on in their organization.
By giving visibility to your followers, they will buy into your mission and vision, and they will
support you with conviction in achieving the goal. Most importantly, transparency and openness
give your followers clarity, and make them feel more empowered while keeping them engaged.

6. Understanding multi-generational workplace

Great leaders have a very good understanding of the generational differences among
employees in their organizations. 
Yet, only 6% of organizations strongly agree that their leaders are equipped to lead a
multigenerational workforce effectively. This shocking statistic shows that leaders have a long
way to go in understanding, supporting and managing organizations with various generations.
Research shows that leaders and managers are accountable for 70% of employee motivation
and happiness. Therefore, one of the greatest characteristics of a great leader is the ability to
motivate and empower employees no matter their age.  
On the other hand, even though 3 in 4 employees see effective communication as the number
one leadership attribute, less than 1 in 3 employees feel like their leaders communicate efficiently. 

7. Vision and purpose

“Good business leaders create a vision, articulate the vision, passionately own the
vision, and relentlessly drive it to completion.”
Good leaders always have a clear vision and purpose. Outstanding leaders not only visualize the
future, but they also know how to share their vision with their followers, and get their attention and
alignment.

In the workplace, setting and communicating a clear purpose, mission and vision are the most
important prerequisites for company's and employees' success. When employees are able
to see the big picture, they can see where they are heading. Great leaders know how to inspire
others with their vision of the future, and they are able to influence and inspire others to follow
them in achieving great results.

MOTIVATION
Motivation refers to psychological processes that arouse and direct goal – directed behavior.
It encourages individuals to work enthusiastically, often performing more work than what is
required. What could managers do to ensure such motivated, enthusiastic performance
among their subordinates? What could be done to lessen unmotivated employees whose
work performance is limited to the minimum need? Understanding individual human
needs, perceptions, thoughts, and beliefs may provide good answers to such questions that
are often asked in different work settings.

Maslow’s Hierarchy of needs theory

1. Physiological Needs – refer to the human need for food, water, shelter, and other physical
necessities.

2. Safety needs – refer to human needs for security and protection from physical and
psychological harm.

3. Social Needs – pertain to the human desire to be loved and to love, as well as the need for
affection and belongingness.

4. Esteem needs – include tye human need for self- respect, self – fulfillment, and to become
the best according to one’s capability.

5. Self - actualization needs are the final needs in Maslow’s Hierarchy.

Maslow: The 12 Characteristics of a Self-Actualized Person

1) Self-actualized people embrace the unknown and the ambiguous.

They are not threatened or afraid of it; instead, they accept it, are comfortable with it and are often
attracted by it. They do not cling to the familiar. Maslow quotes Einstein:
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious."
2) They accept themselves, together with all their flaws.
She perceives herself as she is, and not as she would prefer herself to be. With a high level of self-
acceptance, she lacks defensiveness, pose or artificiality. Eventually, shortcomings come to be seen
not as shortcomings at all, but simply as neutral personal characteristics.
3) They prioritize and enjoy the journey, not just the destination.
4) While they are inherently unconventional, they do not seek to shock or disturb.
5) They are motivated by growth, not by the satisfaction of needs.
While most people are still struggling in the lower rungs of the 'Hierarchy of Needs,' the self-
actualized person is focused on personal growth.
6) Self-actualized people have purpose.
7) They are not troubled by the small things. Instead, they focus on the bigger picture.
8) Self-actualized people are grateful.
They do not take their blessings for granted, and by doing so, maintain a fresh sense of wonder
towards the universe.

9) They share deep relationships with a few, but also feel identification and affection
towards the entire human race.
10) Self-actualized people are humble.
11) Self-actualized people resist enculturation.
They do not allow themselves to be passively molded by culture -- they deliberate and make their
own decisions, selecting what they see as good, and rejecting what they see as bad. They neither
accept all, like a sheep, nor reject all, like the average rebel. Self-actualized people:
12) Despite all this, self-actualized people are not perfect.
