The Reluctant Entrepreneur: Turning Dreams into Profits

EFFECTIVE LEADERS MOTIVATE OTHERS TO DO GREAT WORK

Of all the leadership skills, none is more important than the ability to find and nurture extraordinary employees. Nothing will propel a business faster and further.

Great leaders hire the best people, set high goals, make those goals seem exciting, and then keep the entire team focused on the necessary tasks required to achieve them. They are willing to do the hard thinking and come up with innovative ideas. More important, they’ve learned how to get others to embrace those ideas. Rather than resorting to feel-good incentives (like “Employee-of-the-Month” awards) to bribe their employees to work harder and smarter, they appeal to their inner desire to do their best.
