Excellent Leadership, what is it?

admin

Excellent leadership is rare and quite precious. In my working life I have had several leaders, some good and a lot unfortunately not so good; but a few were excellent! And when you think deeper: why were these leaders excellent?

One of my excellent leaders was someone who had a very clear opinion and certainly did not shy away from a solid discussion. Also, he fought for his people, always putting them first with the goal of making them better. When I got into trouble because of my strong opinion, he helped me. Those memories will remain with me for a lifetime!

What is excellent leadership?
Isn’t it about serving the other person? Aim for the best for them?

It all starts with behaviour, our culture.
That is why I love to work with a social covenant, a commitment on how we want to treat each other.

What happens if the social covenant is broken?
How do we repair our broken relationship?

Go in humility. Be open to being wrong. Yes, you, me, we could be wrong.
Go in pre-forgiveness. Forgive before you go. This way our whole body relaxes and we can stay in the conversation.
Go in love (or care). Care more about the other person than you care about yourself. It is truly a gift you can give: I honour you and love you.
Go in 100% truth. Speak 100% the truth, even if it hurts. There are so many lies these days, what a liberation to have people speaking the truth!

I have noticed when you follow above attitude and apologise when you have done wrong, the quality of the relationship increases; even if you made a serious error. It will lead to a better, more excellent, relationship then before it was broken.

My advice: be an excellent leader, focus on the relationship, ask for forgiveness when due and love each other!
