By Manny Rutz


Most people think that being a good leader is something that you are born with. The truth is you can learn to become a great leader, a leader for your family or your business. Leadership is needed in every aspect of life especially if you want to be successful in any business ventures.

As a team leader or business owner is important you understand how to communicate with your team members. Explaining the vision or mission in a way people get excited to be a part of a team, that's what great leaders do. A leader is not a boss, there's a huge difference between a boss and a leader. The sooner you understand the difference the better.

The top characteristic you should have as a leader is honesty. If you are honest and transparent with your team mates their respect for your leadership will only increase. Trust is crucial for the success of every partnership or team project. If you have the respect of your team members your words will have a greater impact.

Remember that communication is crucial, you can choose to be a leader or you can become a boss. The reality is that you can't be both. Problems and obstacles will always come, the difference is how you confront those problems and work together to solve them and learn from the experience. That's the main difference between a boss and a leader. Most importantly be sure that you always do what you tell others to do instead of just telling others what to do.

It is important to be a leader that is approachable. There are a great number of people who assume that ruling with an iron fist and intimidation are the right way to show leadership. This isn't favorable and in fact, will prevent you from being respected. Let subordinates know that they can bring you any concerns they have. Being sure that you're taking the advice you're given when trying to be a leader is something that's important. Keep on learning if you want to be the best leader possible.
