Law of the Lid

Leadership is like a lid or a

ceiling on your organization.

To reach the highest level of

effectiveness, you have to raise your

leadership lid.

Business growth depends on the

extent the leadership allows

it to grow.

Leadership has a

multiplying effect.

Law of Influence

Positional leadership

especially does not work in voluntary

organizations.

Leadership is simply about

influencing people. Cannot be

mandated. It must be earned.

The very essence of all

power to influence lies in

getting the other person to

participate.

As soon as they no longer

believe you can deliver, they will stop following.

Law of Process

I Don’t Know What I Don’t Know.

I Know That I Need to Know.

I Know and Grow and It Starts to

Show.

Leaders should be constant learners.

Leadership Develops

Daily, Not in a Day.

It’s the capacity to develop and improve

one’s skills that distinguishes leaders from their followers.

The process of learning is ongoing, a

result of self-discipline and perseverance.

Law of Navigation Anyone Can Steer the

Ship, but It Takes a

Leader to Chart the Course.

Charting A Course with A Navigation Strategy

Predetermine course of actionLay out your goalsAdjust your prioritiesNotify key personnel Allow time for acceptanceHead into actionExpect problemsAlways point to the successesDaily review your plan

Secret to the Law of Navigation is

preparation. When you prepare well, you

convey confidence and trust. Leaders

who are good navigators are

capable of taking their people just about anywhere.

Law of E. F. Hutton/Addition

Leaders add value by serving

others along with serving themselves.

Adding Value, Changing Lives – four guidelines

for adding value to others.

Truly Value OthersMake Yourself More Valuable To Others

Know and Relate to What Others Value

Do Things That Others Value

Leadership isn’t about how far we advance

ourselves but how far we

advance others.

Are you making

things better for the

people who follow you?

Law of Solid Ground

The foundation

of leadership is TRUST.

Character CommunicatesA PERSON’S CHARACTER

QUICKLY COMMUNICATES MANY THINGS TO OTHERS

Character Communicates

ConsistencyCharacter Communicates

PotentialCharacter Communicates

Respect

A leader build trust by

consistently exemplifying competence,

connection and character.

Law of RespectGreatest potential pitfall-

relying on talent alone

“PEOPLE NATURALLY FOLLOW LEADERS STRONGER THAN

THEMSELVES”

Good leaders rely on respect Good leaders understand that l leadership is voluntary As soon as respect is lost, influence over people will be lost

“When people respect you as a leader, the follow

you”

Law of Intuition“every person possess

intuition” It is based on facts and instincts as well as other changing factors like employee morale, organizational momentum.

It is the ability to “smell things”.

It is either natural or must be nurtured.

“people are intuitive in their area of strength”

Law of Magnetism “who you are is who

you attract”

It is also a call to action to know weakness and seek

to grow out of them.

The things you don’t like about your organization is what you don’t like about yourself.

“If you want to grow an

organization grow the leader”

Law of Connection “ leaders touch a heart before

they ask for a

hand” To truly connect with people you have to value them learn

about them and then adapt to who they

are.

Change yourself in order to invite them.

“you develop credibility with

people when you connect with them and show that you

genuinely care and want to help

them”

Law of the Inner Circle “ a leader’s connection

is determined

by those closest to

him” We must surround ourselves continually with people we

admire and respect

Potential for growth is stunted when we keep weaker people

than ourselves with us“ you show me

your friends and I’ll show you your

future.”

TO SUCCEED YOU MUST EMPOWER OTHERS

The Law of Empowerment

Why do we fail to empower?

DESIRE FOR JOB SECURITY RESISTANCE TO

CHANGE

LACK OF SELF WORTH

Great leaders are both highly visionary and highly practical

Mission gives Purpos

e

Vision gives a Pictur

e

Strategy

gives a Plan

The Law of the Picture

Followers Are Always Watching What You Do

It’s Easier to Teach What’s Right Than to Do What’s

Right

Work on Changing Ourselves Before Trying to

Improve Others

The Most Valuable Gift a Leader Can Give Is Being

a Good Example

The Law of the Buy-In

The leader finds the dream

And then the people

The people find the leader

And then the dream

Law of VictoryWe are

humans and we love to

win. We hate to lose.

The unity of vision doesn’t happen spontaneously

The right players with proper diversity of talent don’t come together on their own

It takes a leader to make those things happen

True leader has to ensure that the team wins. He can’t ensure

it from the very beginning but he can ensure is to follow a correct path to follow

to reach there.

Law of MomentumLeaders don’t give up. They

never lose their momentum. They always

know how to get their things

going

Examples are Walt Disney and Colonel

Sanders. There wouldn’t have been a KFC or Disney world had they given up in

the middle.

Sanders started his dream at the age of 65 and got turned down for

1009 times before getting the first yes for his franchisee

idea.

Walt Disney was turned down for

being unimaginative. After we went

bankrupt he was turned down 306

times before getting financing for hid

Disney World project

Law of PriorityA leader has

Plan Bs because he knows that

Plan A hardly works out.

Activity Accomplishment A leader is the one who climbs the tallest tree, surveys the entire situation, and yells “Wrong Jungle!”

A leader should learn 3 Rs:

1) What is REQUIRED

2) What gives a greatest RETURN

3) What brings the greatest REWARD

Law of Sacrifice The cost of

leadership: Leaders must be willing to give up more than

the people they lead

The Higher the Level of

Leadership, the Greater the Sacrifice

Effective leaders

sacrifice much that is good in

order to dedicate

themselves to what is best.

Law of Timing

Good leadership timing requires many things –

a. Understandingb. Maturity

c. Confidenced. Decisivenesse. Experience

f. Intuitiong. Preparation

Wrong action + wrong time

= DisasterRight action + wrong

time = Resistance

Wrong action + Right time

= MistakeRight action + Right

time = Success

Law of Explosive GrowthTo Add

Growth, Lead Followers – To Multiply,

Lead Leaders leaders who develop leaders

impact people far beyond their personal reach. Every

time you develop leaders and help them increase their

leadership ability, you make them capable of influencing an even greater number of

people

You can grow by leading followers. But if you want to

maximize your leadership and help your organization reach its potential, you need to develop leaders. There is no

other way to experience explosive

growth.

Law of LegacyChoose Who Will Carry

on Your Legacy –Too often leaders put

their energy into organizations, buildings or other lifeless objects. But only people live on

after we are gone. Everything else is

temporary.

Know the Legacy You Want to Leave –

Someday people will summarize your

life in a single sentence. My

advice: pick it now!

Live the Legacy You Want to

Leave – to have any

credibility as a leader, you must live what you say

you believe.

Make Sure You Pass the Baton

–If you don’t

make sure you pass the baton,

you will not leave the

legacy you desire.

In Summary

Your value is measured by your succession

You must know when to make a move

You must find a way for the team to win

You must empower others to remain an effective leader

You can’t move people to action unless you move them with emotion

You need to earn everyone’s trust, and their buy-in

You become more effective by being a better leader
