Staying sane and effective

Leaders and Managers are human beings too.That means they also have problems and sometimes if not always they get numbed with the pressures they are facing.I have seen leaders get detached from his fellow human creatures due to pressures and conflicts that are piling up. So here's a few tips for you "Leaders" to keep you effective,sane and looking fresh ha ha ha amidst all the shaking moments.

Always be prepared like a Boy Scout- you can never tell what may happen so be ready with how you respond and not how to react on situations.

Live with accountability- see things yourself and don't just believe on what you hear.Assess and see things for yourself and with your own eye balls.

Share your goals and expectations- effective organizational leadership or management demands clear communication, goals and expectations.

Be Courageous- this will help you generate respect, loyalty, confidence among your peers and employees.

Be a solution finder- remember your Math class before? There is always a solution for every problem. You may ask people around you for some formula if you want but don't forget the "given thing."

Stand tall with Integrity- you can only do this if you have some life principles.Get one if you don't have.

Remember that tough times ever last like the last one you tackled

Remeber God and let Him intervene.

P.S. My appreciation to the best student leader i have known (Ken)who wants to embrace change, innovation and new concept.He's from East Visayan Academy of Cebu but now enjoying his fresh year in college at Adventist University of the Philippines.Make waves Ken!
