Many leaders want their teams to perform better, but forget to look in the mirror at their own performance. Self-leadership is the first, and most important, step to developing a world-class team.
While team success doesn’t end with you, it does start with you.
Followers do what they see their leaders doing. If you are pushing yourself to be better every day, they are more likely to do the same. However, if they see you coasting, they’re more likely to coast as well.
Leaders must go first.
What does this look like? Consider the following:
1 – Make personal growth a daily priority.
2 – Look for challenges to tackle, especially those that stretch you.
3 – Look for new opportunities, even if you have to grow in order to maximize them.
4 – Invite your followers to join you on your journey.
Imagine having the confidence to play offense when leadership challenges arise rather than playing defense.
Imagine yourself confidently telling your followers, “Let’s go find a solution to this problem!”
Imagine waking up each day excited to cast a vision for your team to climb the next mountain of opportunity in front of you.
Imagine having a team of highly-engaged people who are energized to go on the journey with you to accomplish the mission of your organization.
This is all possible when you develop yourself first and invest in your team members out of the overflow of your personal growth.
