8 HABITS OF LEADERSBy Peter Trombetti

Oficio Group

1. THEY PRAISE

They give employees recognition when they deserve it

They truly mean their praise and come off as genuine

2. THEY MAKE DECISIONS

Great leaders listen to the opinions of those around them and quickly and efficiently make a choice

This builds confidence and momentum with their team

3. THEY TAKE RESPONSIBILITY

Sometimes we make a bad decision. Good leaders know when they’ve made a wrong choice and they take responsibility

Instead of focusing on the negative, they figure out a positive way to move forward

4. THEY COMMUNICATE

They don’t keep ideas and plans to themselves. They work with their team to make sure everyone knows what is going on and when to do it.

They also communicate the “why” behind their actions.

5. THEY SET AN EXAMPLE

Employees notice what you do and how you do it.

Don’t just Tell - Act how you would want your employees to act.

6. THEY GIVE FEEDBACK

They notice areas of improvement in employees and work with them to better themselves.

7. THEY SEEK HELP

They know where they are vulnerable

They don’t pretend to know everything - they ask questions and ask for help when they need it

8. THEY CHALLENGE

They challenge their employees to take personal responsibility for their projects

This asks employees to do their best as it is a direct reflection of them and their ability
