REAL LEADERSHIP SECRETS

Page 2: Real Leadership Secrets

Much of the leadership literature suggests the

leader be “selfless.” Most leaders

read“selfless” and think “bleeding heart” and

they just know that that excessively sympathetic

approach with staff would never work.

Page 3: Real Leadership Secrets

However, the context for selflessness is misrepresented. Selfless leadership actually means mission-focused leadership, where

the leader had little or no self-concern, especially with regard to fame, position or

self-reward. Their only concern is about getting the job done.

Page 4: Real Leadership Secrets

“The general who advances without

coveting fame

and retreats without fearing disgrace,

whose only thought is to protect his country and

do good service for his sovereign, is the jewel of

the kingdom.”

Page 5: Real Leadership Secrets

To be a real selfless leader, you need to have

your head in the game; you need to be focused.

You can’t be distracted by “what was” and “what

if.” Selfless leadership is all about focusing on

action.

So don’t listen to that negativity, fear and self-doubt, it simply destroys your mission focus and

makes you a “self-focused” leader.

The New Operating System for Success is all about growing selfless, action oriented

performers. To learn more about how to become a selfless leader, start by reading this white
