An important aspect of good leadership is the ability to work and relate with others. There are ten qualities that characterize successful leadership in the area of relating and communicating with other people.#adviceforstartups

1. Availability

A good leader is available and in touch with people. An important leadership skill is the ability to recognize needs and, be able to respond to them quickly and in the moment. How do you think you can maximize someone’s strengths and talent if you don’t communicate?

2. Facilitating Harmonious Relationships

A good leader realizes the importance of harmonious relationships and is proactive in creating a harmonious atmosphere. Successful results are born out of harmony rather than conflict. Good leadership will prioritize keeping conflict and disharmony to the minimum.#smallbusinesstips

3. Approachability

A good leader is approachable and has an open door policy. Good leadership creates an environment where openness and honesty can occur in an atmosphere of fairness rather than judgment. This was one of those things I changed immediately when I bought my Coffee Roasting business. Do not discount the importance of this. The impact it made was one of the best things I did, my first year as an owner.

4. Appropriate use of authority

Sensitivity to the proper use, and conversely the misuse, of their authority is the whole mark of good leadership. A good leader will never use their position of authority for self-gratification and promotion. I have seen this so many times I can’t tell you how much it bothers me. I learned over the years that many people just have no idea how to properly handle power and authority. I have empowered many a manager or vice president over the years, only to see them abuse it by trying to lead in a controlling and domineering manner. Successful leaders use their positional power with wisdom and, sensitivity to the appropriateness of the circumstances.

5. Confidentiality

Good leaders conduct conferences and meetings in an atmosphere of trust. They display appropriate confidentiality and respect towards others and about others.

6. Self-Motivated

Good leaders set and use goals to motivate themselves and others. They understand the importance of personal and professional development. Successful leaders do what is necessary to upgrade their knowledge and skills and be on the cutting edge in their field.

My business right now is a great example of that. We were a consulting firm that did all the usual things. Recently I changed course and the business is benefiting greatly! We are now focusing on extreme cutting edge services, such as video marketing, local business SEO, lead generation and automating sales funnels.

Today I only have 3 employees, not the 65 I used to have, but this change in direction has brought my people to another level of motivation. It also showed them we are not static, we are willing and able to change. The message was, we will always be moving in the direction of the future. This new direction has given us a tremendous boost! Successful leaders not only motivate themselves in personal development but also motivate those around them.

7. Provide Support

Good leaders are able to provide emotional support for those for whom they are responsible. They recognize the importance of encouragement and inspiring confidence and also give recognition of a job well done.

8. Maintaining Motivation and Team Spirit

A good leader provides incentives and motivators to improve the performance of their employees. One of the primary roles of good leadership is to challenge them to maintain quality results.

9. Clear Communication

A good leader is an excellent communicator. Their leadership involves communicating clearly the objectives and procedures required of a task. They set clear, attainable, and measurable goals.

10. An Understanding of Group Dynamics

A good leader understands the dynamics of group relationships. Successful leaders have the ability to lead groups without aggravating conflict and minimizing disharmony. They are inclusive and skilled in creating a sense of team unity. They are adept at balancing the strengths and weaknesses of the group for best results.
