If your hope is to make a fortune in a day, you're not going to be successful.What matters most is what you do day by day over the long haul.
If you continually invest in your leadership development, letting your assets compound, the inevitable result is growth over time.And here are the five phases. Phase 1.I don't know what I don't know.
As long as a person doesn't know what he doesn't know, he isn't going to grow.Phase 2.I know that I need to know.Many people find themselves placed in a leadership position only to look around and discover that no one is following them.
When that happens, we realize that we need to learn how to lead.Phase 3.I know what I don't know. To grow as a leader I have to realize that I don't have all the answers or the skills as a leader.I need others on my journey of growth.Phase 4.
I know and grow and it starts to show.When you recognize your lack of skill and begin the daily discipline of personal growth, exciting things begin to happen. In phase five, I simply go because of what I know.
At this point, your ability to lead becomes almost automatic.You develop great instincts, and that is when the payoff is incredible.Do you know where you are in the leadership process?
