How to Be a Leader in the Workplace

Hi There

For many of us online we are still trying to establish ourselves and that means maintaining the day job i guess – certainly that’s true for me, so why not enjoy it whilst you can and develop your leadership skills along the way?

Many jobs require that employees be “team players.” You may hear that so often that it becomes meaningless. But it isn’t – being a team player is a fairly broad term, and it can include an important attribute that employers appreciate: leadership.

Being a leader in the workplace does not necessarily mean being a boss, manager, supervisor, or other “official” position, although it can mean that. Being a leader in the workplace can also mean setting a good example for others and/or heading up office programs and projects.

Here are some tips and ideas on how to be a leader in the workplace.

Be Confident

There’s a saying that can serve you well in the workplace: “Never let them see you sweat.” Of course, no one is perfect; but appearing confident inspires others to trust you and take your advice. One way to ensure that you appear self-assured is not to talk too much about your fears and concerns. Talk to friends outside of the workplace about your uncertainties.

See the Good in Others

Being able to see the good traits in others is a useful leadership trait in the workplace. If you need to put certain people in charge of certain tasks, it pays to know who will do well with what task. You also may see potential in a co-worker and “stretch” him or her by requesting a task that might be a bit challenging. This improves the overall skill set of the workforce, and helps build self-esteem in your co-workers.

Don’t Be Afraid to Delegate

There’s a difference between being a people person and being a people pleaser. Being a people person means you have a genuine love for people, but you’re not afraid to ask people to do things. Being a leader doesn’t mean just doing everything yourself; it means you are comfortable giving up some control and delegating tasks to others.

Hi Tony Here

This is Me, on holiday a few years ago!

 

Why am I doing this?

here it is guys

Having spent 40 years in publishing, working long hours in a stressful business environment, making substantial money for various business owners the time is now for me to make my own income channels outside of my 9 – 5 role.

I’m at a stage in my life where I want to create a substantial income for the coming years to supplement a near non existent pension fund, and security for my wife and my 2 children.

I want time and money freedom to enjoy my family, travelling and getting involved in other activities.

I have witnessed first first hand the influence of the internet in our lives and in publishing especially– the future is clear – it’s online.Well I’ve spent 10 years, going to seminars, buying the next big thing, dipping in and out of online – membership sites, kindle books, affiliate marketing, blogging etc. etc. 


But really just tinkering around the edges

NO MORE


Well not this time – this time I’m focused & driven
