10 Mistakes that leaders should avoid making

1 Pride & Arrogance

Early successes begin to inflate egos. Never forget your roots

2 Negative influences

Some advices are valuable and could help keep you on track but some will nudge you until one day you wake up and find yourself way off the course. LISTEN TO THE ONE WORTH LISTENING AND IGNORE THE NEGATIVE ONES

3 Lacking integrity

Establish a set of sound ethics policies, integrate them into all business processes, communicate them broadly to all employees, and make clear that you will not tolerate any deviation from any of them. Then live by them

4 Majoring in Minor Things

There are a handful of things that are important enough to account for the greatest impact. Don’t sit on the Minor task and emphasize as though this it is a Major Task to complete.

5 Avoiding

If there are things that you can do, and should do, then do them. Don’t neglect them. Keeping quiet will not solve the issue for you.

6 Lacking Values

Values are what the company stands in. You cannot be a leader if you kill the company’s values.Establish a set of Core Values that can unite the organization, and then create resonance around them.

7 Blindly trusting people

Allow people to run on “short leashes” until they prove themselves. Any competent and skillfull person should have no problem with this approach.

8 Spin Doctoring

Many companies taught their executives to provide carefully crafted answers to questions to conceal the true facts. Present the facts, tell the truth, communicate the complete story and let the chips fall where they may

9 Short Cutting

Tried and true process takes time and skill. You reap what you sow. Don’t U-Turn where you should not just because you want to be fast

10 Short Term Focus

Don’t cannibalize future results to satisfy the present quarter. Don’t obsessed with making the immediate quarter, that we severely impacted future business.
