What really defines your leadership: the results you achieve or the culture you build?
In the graphic below, I share five fundamental principles that I have consistently seen confirmed in practice.
These are principles that every manager should keep in mind in order to lead their team with impact.
1- The team reflects the manager, and the manager’s performance reflects the team.
2- Employees leave managers more than they leave companies.
3- A-level managers recruit A-level candidates, B-level managers recruit C-level candidates.
4- Manage yourself, or you won’t be able to manage anyone else.
5- The culture of an organization is shaped by the worst behavior that the leader is willing to tolerate (Gruenert, Whitaker).
