10 Things You Can Do to Improve as a Leader

August 26, 2013 by Ron Edmondson Articles

6. Ask for input from those you lead.

I promise, the people you are trying to lead have suggestions. They won’t often share them unless they are given permission. You have to be bold—and humble—enough to ask.

7. Analyze current conditions.

Few leaders stop to see where they are currently. What’s working? What’s not? What needs tweaking? What needs killing?

8. Reflect on past mistakes.

The best teacher is experience. Most likely, you’ve had situations in the past that God can use to prepare you for what you are currently facing. Or you’ve watched others make mistakes. Take time to reflect and learn.

9. Write some goals.

It amazes me when I hear leaders who don’t have written goals and objectives they are currently trying to achieve. Writing something puts it in your schema. You are more likely to have the goals at the front of your mind. When that happens, you’ll be a walking sponge of new ideas to accomplish them. You will learn as you go because you are living with your current objectives closer to your mind.

10. Subscribe to a few leadership blogs.

People are talking leadership these days. Have you noticed? Participate. Listen. Contribute to the discussion. You’ll learn along the way.
