"Leader" is a very strong word
“Leadership-development research we've conducted with data from thousands of executives from all over the world points unmistakably to the conclusion that it's the presence of a few truly profound areas of strength that distinguishes us in an organization,” claims an October 4 blog posting of Harvard Business Review (HBR).
This point relates to John Hersey’s video comments in “How to Help Employees Be Their Best.”
“Failing is not a result of overly developing a strength,” claims HBR. “It's a lack of attention to related leadership characteristics. In the same way that Michael Phelps might improve as a swimmer, not through swimming more laps but by developing complementary strengths such as weight training, running, and other cross-training activities, people can improve leadership strengths by straightforward development of strongly correlated companion skills and behaviors.”
This article details three principles that leaders can focus on to develop their strengths.
