LEADERSHIP & MANAGEMENT

What makes an effective leader?

Harvard Business Review contributor Rebecca Knight cites 4 qualities:

1️⃣ Authenticity
How to cultivate: Ask for feedback from co-workers during casual and low-pressure situations. Ask them what you should keep doing, start doing, and stop doing.

2️⃣ Analytical prowess
How to improve: Stay curious and be proactive in using data to create better stories and outcomes for your organization.

3️⃣ Adaptability
How to strengthen: Constantly expose yourself to new environments and experiences with different kinds of people.

4️⃣ Empathy
How to develop: Always put yourself in the shoes of other people and ask yourself how would you like to be treated if you were in their position.
