Everyone of us can be a good follower but not all of us can be a good leader. There's always a standard when it comes to a position. To become a leader you must pass on those standards. You must have these aspects.
Integrity
You will be a good leader if you have your own principles in life that you can share to your co-officers. A strong principles that is not easy to be shaken by the others or by the situation.
Ability to Delegate
As a leader you must know how to delegate properly all the responsibilities. But don't take it as an opportunity for you to have a less work. And avoid taking all the responsibilities by yourself cause that will lead you to an unhealthy organization. Trust your members whole heartedly and always guide them to do better.
Communication
All leaders must be good in communicating in different ways. Always keep in mind "That you must have to be effective in communication for you to be an effective leader." Because communication will help you to improve your workplace culture.
Self-Awareness
Of course you can't lead others if you don't know yourself. Always do a reflection on yourself. If you are still doing your work. If you properly lead your members or if you are abusing your power already.
Gratitude
It is good to work in a place where in all your efforts are well appreciated. Always give thanks to one another, it will help every one to feel motivated in every works they will do.
Influence
A leader must be a good influencer, cause a lot of people thinking highly to them. And some are putting them as a role model. So, if you are a leader now? Influence your member or other people outside your organization in a good way.
Courage
You must have enough courage to speak up about new ideas you have, courage to talk about the problem your organization are now facing. Courage to flag a concern for someone above you.
Respect
Always be respectful to others, even if they are in the lower position than you, even if they are not part of your organization. Because respect will lead you to a good relationship with other people and with your whole team.
Don't doubt yourself, if you think you have those aspects it means you can be an effective leader. Always keep in mind "when in doubt, believe" If you believe that you can do it, people will believe in you too. ❤
