Preamble
Back in 2019, I used to read Quora daily and reshare the answers that stuck with me. Looking back at the whole series recently, I ended up unpublishing most of them, they just didn't hold up. This one did, so it's still here.
What is an example of a leadership mindset?
The following answer is by Stan Garfield to this particular question.
- Serve your people.
- Practice and reward caring, sharing, and daring – caring for others, sharing what you know, and daring to try new ideas.
- Insist on trust, truth, and transparency in all dealings – earn and respect the trust of others, communicate truthfully and openly, and demonstrate and expect accountability.
- Look for opportunities to help, thank, and praise others.
- Eliminate criticism, blame, and ridicule in all interactions with others.
- Do what is right – logically, financially, morally, ethically, and environmentally – with decency, integrity, and fairness.
- Do it the right way – honestly, accurately, correctly, and completely – with good effort, resulting in high quality, and meeting all commitments.
- Do it right away – don’t procrastinate, make excuses, or avoid what is unpleasant – the sooner you start, the better.
