get all the credit for doing

it.

How to Be an Effective Leader ?• Leadership is about making others better as a result of your presence and

making sure that impact lasts in your absence. • Learn all that you can about the services you offer. Become familiar with

company history, the mission statement and current leadership. • Increase your visibility in work areas. Chip in with willing hands to meet goals

and work with the team.• Effective leaders must maintain workers' confidence and a positive attitude.

Such as "I know you can do it" or "You can handle this." • Encourage others by affirming the things they did right and showing them what

they could do to improve, if needed. Don't embarrass or put others down in public.

• Books by prominent leaders will inspire you and provide examples of effective leadership.

• Be an active listener. Be open to new ideas and allow employees to voice concerns about job-related issues.

Communication is simply the act of transferring information from one place to another.

How To Communicate Effectively ?• It is absolutely critical to be as direct, to the point and concise as

possible.• “Bosses often say, ‘Can you have that report to me? It’s really

important, and I’d really like to have it,’. A more effective way to deliver that message: “Can you please get that report to me? I’d like it on my desk by 5 p.m. Friday.”

• Your attitude while talking is also important.• If you open yourself to other opinions and perspectives, you’ll find

it much easier to get your own message across.• Do ask open-ended questions. They can buy time.• Don’t say negative things about colleagues when they’re not around.

That identifies you as a gossip and someone who can’t be trusted.• Don’t be a Pessimist. Even if you think your colleague or boss is

completely wrong about something, you can counter with an open-ended question that shows respect and a can-do spirit.
