FOUR THINGS MOST YOUNG LEADERS NEED NOT TO DO
According to John C. Maxwell in his book tilted 'The 360 degree Leader said:
"The 360 degree leaders take the time and effort to earn influence with their followers just as they do with those over whom they have no authority".
The four things young leaders don't need to do in order to be leaders of influence and characters are listed below.
1. PRIDE:
With no doubt, most young leaders in different leadership positions do one thing in common - showing pride within oneself which shows up in many ways; like displaying body languages and words that hurts others unnecessarily.
So, to be a young leader rightly or wrongly chosen by the public know that you are loved by many other people unknown to you. Try then to show love and mercy to many others too who are unknown to you.
2. DISRESPECTFUL:
Young leaders in our various communities and countries today are fresh and wise. Because you are young does not give you the advantage to disrespect your elders whom you may think are not standard to your view.
Nevertheless, learn how to bend and be flexible to other people's opinions and be free to do good works which are naturally inbuilt by God in us.
Most young leaders failed to accomplish their dreams and visions in their leadership career due to their lack of communicating skills with others who should be helpful and that has been what led to their down fall.
If you believe you are a good follower, you must strive to learn and build on human characters and temperament. If you lack communication, you lack network.
Leaders don't need to lack in any area of human endeavors, that's why they need to be growing all the time. Leaders should be willing to learn without season and time.
4. DISPLAYING WARLIKE CHARACTERS:
Because you have power does not mean you are a warrior. You are young and have public power is good enough to turn many lives into gold if power is used wisely.
Why don't you explore your mind and surprise humanity with your temporary acquired skills in leadership field?
Displaying strength in creativity is the most WARLIKE field young leaders need to fix themselves.
Young leaders should be peaceful to their followers whether known or unknown so that he can raise and save bundles of thousands of lives through him. True young leaders who are born to save are scarce.
Why don't you be one?
Always remember; be the change you want to see in the world.
