LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
Hello blog guests, I am glad
to be back here with you blogging after an extended break due to some very
important commitments I have been attending to for the past three weeks. Thanks
for being here with me. We are still in the series titled “LEADERSHIP
DEVELOPMENT,” and in my last post I commenced the subtopic – CHARACTERISTICS
THAT MAKE GOOD AND EFFECTIVE LEADERS. Two characteristics were actually
discussed and were:
·
A leader should have a clear
vision and always communicate his vision to the subjects and colleagues
·
A leader must learn to be
morally upright.
Today, I am writing on four
more characteristics:
· A leader should be neutral in relating with people
·
A leader should be sociable
and caring
·
A leader should be inspiring
and motivational
·
A leader must be a listener
and a resolute decision maker
·
A LEADER SHOULD BE NEUTRAL
IN THE WAY HE RELATES WITH HIS SUBJECTS
Leadership entails being so dispassionate in the way you relate with people. Don’t get me wrong here; I am not saying you should be disinclined to your subjects or colleagues, I mean you have got to show to everyone around that you are unbiased and open to all. By that, you would be successfully gaining the trust of everyone around you and their confidence in you would deepen. One great mistake many leaders make is that they tend to have special subjects or colleagues they draw closer to themselves with everyone around observing the special close relationship you have with those specific subjects. The work output of those you don’t draw close to yourself as expected would be different from the others you relate more with; this can be a problem in any setting. Learn to carry everyone along, hear from everyone and communicate with everyone.
·
A LEADER SHOULD BE SOCIABLE
AND CARING
Being sociable and caring to your subjects, colleagues and other associates is a strong character you must develop because this would go a long way to making you succeed as a leader. When a leader is so unfriendly and unreachable, the subjects and other associates find it difficult to help in one way or the other with respect to giving wise counsel, suggestions, discussing problems and possible solutions, including other key contributions that could be coming from them. You have got to learn to be convivial if you must benefit from your subjects and associates positively. When only what your subjects know you for is pushing them to work and delivering their services without getting to know from them their individual challenges once in a while, then their commitment to duties could be affected with time. Learn to show caring attitude to the people around you, observe their moods at work or after work, ask questions on how they are faring and they will dare to take priority of the task they are committed to. One good turn they say deserves another.
Being inspiring and motivational is a strong characteristics of an effective leader. Getting the best out of your subjects or associates requires you being inspiring. People should be able to draw inspiration from you by your actions, fruits and idiosyncrasy. Spearhead challenges facing your organisation or setting, be at the forefront of any situation, lead the way and others will follow suit.
·
A LEADER MUST BE A LISTENER
AND A RESOLUTE DECISION MAKER
Decision making is a vital aspect of leadership because whatever action you take will either make or mar your organisation or setting. You have got to be very resolute and listen more when you are in the valley of decision making. Ensure you learn to listen to wise counsel even from your subjects, colleagues or associates. Listening is not a sign of weakness, rather it a strong attitude for purposeful delivery. Listen and learn every day and your decision making process will be eased to a large extent.
Ladies and gentlemen, see you
again in WORDS ON MARBLE 72 coming up this November, just in a fortnight.
Thanks for being here.

QUOTES ON LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
Managers
have their eyes on the bottom line; leaders have their eyes on the horizon.
Warren Bennis (1925 - )
U.S. educationalist
and writer.
Leadership, "On Becoming a
Leader"
A
constant effort to keep his party together, without sacrificing either
principle or the essentials of basic strategy, is the very stuff of political
leadership. Macmillan was canonised for it.
Harold Wilson (1916 - 1995)
British prime
minister.
Referring
to Harold Macmillan.
Final
Term: The Labour Government, 1974-1976
A leader
is a man who has the ability to get other people to do what they don't want to
do, and like it.
Harry S. Truman (1884 - 1972)
U.S. president.
A leader who doesn't hesitate before
he sends his nation into battle is not fit to be a leader.
Golda Meir (1898 - 1978)
Russian-born Israeli prime
minister.
A people is but the attempt of many
To rise to the completer life of one;
And those who live as models for the mass
Are singly of more value than they all.
To rise to the completer life of one;
And those who live as models for the mass
Are singly of more value than they all.
Robert Browning (1812 - 1889)
British poet.
Luria, A Tragedy
A strategy is only as good as the
vision that guides it.
Burt Nanus (1936 - )
U.S. business academic and
writer.
Visionary Leadership
As well as good academic records I look for people
who've climbed mountains or been captain of the tiddlywinks team at university.
People who other people will follow.
John Banham (1940 - )
British business executive.
Referring to recruitment.
Independent (London)
Even the best strategies seldom take into account
more than a few of the consequences that flow from them. In real life, the
decision-maker must continually adjust to those consequences, and, in doing so,
deviate from the clear course laid out in advance.
Alvin Toffler (1928 - )
U.S. writer.
The Adaptive Corporation
Even though a ruler may be wise as a sage, he must
humble himself and yield to others. Then the intelligent will offer him their
counsel and the brave will exert themselves to the fullest for him.
SimaGuang (1019 - 1086)
Chinese writer.
Zizhitongjian
Executives planning for the future must discover
how to orchestrate corporate environments that nurture and harmonize
subcultures and substrategies.
Craig R. Hickman
U.S. author.
The Future 500 (co-written
with Michael A. Silva)
Failing organizations are usually
over-managed and under-led.
Warren Bennis (1925 - )
U.S. educationalist and writer.
Why Leaders Can't Lead
How shall I be able to rule over
others, that have not full power and command of myself?
François Rabelais (1494? - 1553?)
French humanist and satirist.
Gargantua
I have worked with leaders whose
style is so totally different to my own that I have found it incomprehensible
that they achieve results, but nevertheless they do.
John Harvey-Jones (1924 - 2008)
British business executive and
author.
Making It Happen: Reflections on
Leadership
I start with the premise that the
function of leadership is to produce more leaders, not more followers.
Ralph Nader (1934 - )
U.S. author, lawyer, and
consumer activist.
Time
The person who knows 'how' will
always have a job. The person who knows 'why' will always be his boss.
Diane Ravitch (1938 - )
U.S. educator.
Administrators are cheap and easy to
find and cheap to keep. Leaders—risk takers: they are in very short supply. And
ones with vision are pure gold.
Raymond W. Smith (1937 - )
U.S. business executive.
Speech
If a company has the competencies
that flow from self-awareness and self-regulation, motivation and empathy,
leadership skills and open communication, it should prove more resilient no
matter what the future brings.
Daniel Goleman
U.S. author.
Working with Emotional Intelligence
Leaders have to break out of old
habits and stereotypes to build organizations that continually improve quality
and reduce costs to prosper in the turbulent marketplace.
Dean Tjosvold
U.S. psychologist and author.
Psychology for Leaders (co-written with Mary M. Tjosvold)

4>>>> LANDMARK DISCOVERY
DISCOVERY OF THE SCIENTIFIC PROCESS – NUCLEAR FISSION
German chemist and Nobel laureate
Otto Hahn and Austrian-Swedish physicist Lise Meitner are credited with roles
in discovering nuclear fission, the process of splitting an atom into two or
more smaller parts. By the 1930s, Hahn and Meitner had experimented with
radioactive materials for some time.
After Meitner left Germany in 1938, Hahn and
German chemist Fritz Strassmann made a breakthrough in their experimentation
methods that enabled them to collect physical data showing that an atom of
uranium would “burst” under certain conditions. They announced their finding in
1939. Shortly thereafter, Meitner and British physicist Otto Robert Frisch
published a paper that provided a theoretical explanation for the process, and
named it “fission.” This article by Hahn, which appeared in Scientific
American in 1958, describes how, through a number of twists and turns in
the road, he and his colleagues discovered the fission process in uranium.
