“LEADERSHIP IS
NOT A NOUN,
IT’S A VERB…
IT’S ACTION,
IT’S
MOVEMENT”
LEVEL NO. : THE POSITION LEVEL
RIGHTS
PEOPLE
FOLLOW YOU
BECAUSE
THEY HAVE
TO !!
PEOPLE DON’T “LIKE” TO
HAVE TO FOLLOW
PEOPLE….
BECAUSE THEY
“HAVE”
TO FOLLOW
PEOPLE!!
DOES POSITION
MAKE ONE A
LEADER??
UPSIDE OF LEVEL 1 DOWNSIDE OF LEVEL 1
LEVEL NO. : THE PERMISSION LEVEL
RELATIONSHIPS
PEOPLE NOW BEGIN
TO FOLLOW YOU
BECAUSE THEY
WANT TO !!!
Because now….
You have the ability to
CONNECT with people
NOW YOU ARE A SUPERVISOR THAT
PEOPLE LIKE..THAT PEOPLE CARE ABOUT!!
Relationships
with people
are the
foundation of
leadership
Leadership is INFLUENCE,
and you cannot influence
somebody that you
ANTAGONIZE !!
3 things which leaders do extremely
well to be a RELATIONAL LEADER!!
THEY LISTEN WELL
They take all their
leadership cues by
walking slowly through
the CROWD
and listening
They Constantly OBSERVE
where their People are &
what are they DOING
THEY ARE LEARNING !!
The 5 levels of leadership byJohn Maxwell
In this 3-step Process,
Leaders develop an Attitude of SERVANTHOOD
They now know how to serve they do serve  they love to serve
LEVEL NO. : THE PRODUCTION LEVEL
RESULTS
PEOPLE NOW BECOME
EFFECTIVE AS A
LEADER BECAUSE
THEY PRODUCE!!
This is the PROBLEM
SOLVING level of Leadership
Leaders begin to gain
CREDIBILTY at this level
They model things for their
people which they want to
see because now they
PRODUCE!
What’s Your Credibility Score?????
What’s the LAW OF MAGNETISM??
WE ATTRACT WHO
WE ARE, NOT WHO
WE WANT!!
MANAGERS solve problems
while
LEADERS create
MOMENTUM
which solves 80% of the
problems
LEVEL NO. : THE PEOPLE DEVELOPMENT LEVEL
People Now Begin to
Understand the Most
Appreciable Asset Of
the Organization :

They Commit Themselves to
Develop the People Of their
Organization
REPRODUCTION
A company grows by
growing it’s people
When it’s people
increase their
capacity to do more
work and
TO ACCOMPLISH
HOW DOES A COMPANY REALLY GROW??
3 thoughts on Developing people
80% of the success of “Equipping People
To Be Successful Is In The Front Door”
on who you bring in!!
RECRUITMENT
The ability to not only
bring the right person
in the front door but
also put him in the
“RIGHT PLACES” !!
POSITIONING
SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE vs. SUCCESSFUL LEADERS
They have find their niche and they stay
and work on that sweet spot
Successful people have discovered what
they’re good at!!
Successful people position themselves well
Successful leaders discover what other
people are good at !!
Successful leaders position their other people
well

EQUIPPING YOUR PEOPLE

And You
Are With
Me

coaching by
observing the
leader and
being with
him/her

And I’m
With You

to get better,
fine tuning by
watching &
tweaking
them
You Do It,
Do It By
Yourself

assistance is
not required
anymore

And
Somebody
Is With
You
• Compounding
by training
someone else
to continue
the process
5
LEVEL NO. : THE PINNACLE LEVEL
RESPECT
Because Of Your Qualities,
Because Of What You Have
Earned With So Many For So
Long!
It takes a ‘long’ time to get to this level
PEOPLE ABSOLUTELY FOLLOW
YOU BECAUSE OF WHO YOU
ARE, WHAT YOU HAVE DONE!
Leadership is an always
ongoing, always learning
and growing process
The 5 levels of leadership byJohn Maxwell
People Are on Different Levels With Different People
HOW TO APPLY THIS TO YOURSELF??
• Understand at what level you are with each person you lead
• This tells you how to lead each and every one of them
• People always see a leader through the 5 levels of the grid
• The commitment level is higher, the higher you go with your people
• Different people react differently since they’re at different levels with you
LEADERSHIP IS INFLUENCE, ALWAYS HAS BEEN, ALWAYS WILL BE!
&
YOU HAVE THE POWER TO INCREASE THAT INFLUENCE WITHIN YOURSELF
GOING FURTHER….
