Become a selfless leader

Instructions

  1. Carry the load for others.
    Sacrifice your own time and comfort to relieve those you lead of heavy burdens. For example, if you have an employee with a new family who’s working late, offer to cover for them for the night while they go home to their family.
  2. Be first in line for danger and last for rewards.
    Always take responsibility when things go bad on your team, and give credit to individual team members for their roles when things go well. Do these openly.
  3. Be comfortable giving power away.
    Be willing to share power. Elevate those working for you and give them more responsibilities.
  4. Be flexible.
    Accept feedback from your followers and be willing to change things that are clearly not working. Learn to rest comfortably in working traditions while allowing new and improved ones to be created.
  5. Refuse to be changed by success.
    Concentrate your mind on what counts. Refuse to be inflated by changes in your fortune. Refuse to relax your discipline. Exert even more self-mastery and let the only changes you allow be the ones that improve you.
