As a leader, here are a few things you must grasp once you take the position:
1-Build a core team: carefully select, cultivate and promote key talents, reasonably allocate resources, and ensure the backbone of the team.
2- Maintain a sense of mystery: As your status increases, you must know how to keep a certain distance in front of the people around you and not easily divulge your personal thoughts. Because people have a fear of the unknown and a shy away from the mysterious, the preservation of a sense of mystery helps to maintain influence on others.
3- Listen and speak carefully: Listening more and speaking less in public situations and showing humility can help win the support of others. Every utterance should be well-thought-out and goal-oriented.
4- Deal with objections: Members who repeatedly question leadership decisions should be cautiously considered for their ability to stay in office.
5- Broaden your horizons and be inclusive: As a leader, you should not compete with your subordinates for benefits, but should know how to make concessions and meet their needs, so as to gain the loyalty and follow-up of the team.
6-Accurate identification and strict management: The team should be divided into two types of people, one is the henchman who can be commanded and controlled, and the other is the capable person who exchanges benefits. Critical tasks should be entrusted to trusted henchmen.
7- The art of management: Public criticism of confidants is done to establish authority, but in private compensation or promotion should be given. Cadres should be supported in public and reminded of their mistakes in private.
8- Grasp the balance: It is possible to compromise on small things, but it is necessary to stand firm on major issues. Be decisive in dealing with potential challengers to establish authority and ensure discipline and order in the team.
These principles may manifest themselves differently in different leadership and organizational cultures, but the core purpose is similar: to build an effective and orderly team that ensures the authority and influence of leaders.
