Leading people in a direction where it is better than before

1. Undeniable recognizable

   Thought leaders often live rituals and love routine (Steve Jobs)

2. Never change a winning system

   Changing rituals causes irritation

3. From Boss to Leaders

   Management styles changed over the years. Boss gives orders / Leader is involved and carries the business with the team

From past to future employees

Generation Y aka the Millennials

Problem with Millennials -> You need to apply a different leadership style

And they are not as lazy as many people think

You need to respect their intrinsic motivation and their values. It Is important to adapt to Milleannials and their style of working and thinking

Leadership should help you/guide you in the direction you are designed for

They can be truly loyal when they are led the right way

Gen-Z & Others will need a lot of communication to work. It is important as a leader to communicate why you are leading the way you are

You get a degree and a lot of training that tells you how to do you job. But once you get good at your job you get promoted to be a leader. Problem: There is no training to become a leader -> Leads to micro-management and toxicity.

That’s why it’s important to challenge yourself and look for training and development

• Assess and evaluate the current situation

• Create a meaningful and clear vision (Don’t start small, start big. Then do reverse engineering to see what it takes to reach this goal)

• Explain the vision through story-telling and get your stakeholders on-board

• Enable and empower colleagues to do the job right (You/Companies need to accept mistakes to grow - Company culture)

• Motivate the team and be open-minded

• Gather and give feedback so you can reflect on decisions

• Install a devil’s advocate - challenge the project

• Implement and execute

• Listen. Learn. Improve. Repeat (It’s not only business or work-life balance. You need to feel like you’re going in the right direction with your life. You need a good company culture)

Reserve a little time without an agenda

Don’t be shy to ask the questions that matter to you

Active listening
