Leadership is one of those subjects that have had numerable living examples. However, it is an area of study, which cannot be judged by the success or failure of the individual battles but rather by the outcome of the war. If you search this topic on the internet, you will find many lists of behaviors, traits, and measurements, which are deemed necessary for effective leadership. Most of these can be reduced to a set of foundational building blocks.

The first building block presented is to “Know Your People and Your Business”. It also enhances the need for the leader to not simply trust in those reports, but to be intimately involved on several levels. To accomplish this, the leader must first know his people. In short, it means that it is crucial to know what is going on inside the business, and not merely view it as a spectator.

The second building block it is to “Insist on Realism”. Realistic views create realistic assessments, which produce realistic solutions. It is important to understand the reality of the situation. Making excuses in an effort to make ourselves, or the business, appear better than it is, will only lead to failure in the end.

The third block is to “Set Clear Goals and Priorities”. A leader should spend the time necessary to determine which goals will be most beneficial to the business. Each goal should then be prioritized based upon its relationship to the business vision and needs.

The fourth block is the “Follow Through”. It is equally important to act upon those things that we have taken the time and resources to evaluate, and decided to act upon. This can be the most important step, because it brings motion and action to the process.

Fifth is to “Reward the Doers”. The business, and subsequently its leader, have been said to be only as effective as the weakest member of the team. On the other foot, there will be those who are willing to exceed expectations, and have the ability to do so. As is mentioned in the book, respect and reward are earned values; and those who have earned that respect should be rewarded and promoted.

In the sixth building block, the leader must seek to continue to “Expand People’s Capabilities”. This requires the leader’s ability to coach those people whom they lead in a way that promotes their growth and feeds their talents.

Finally, the leader must bind all these blocks together. “Knowing Yourself” and knowing your business, or in this illustration, your body, will enable the leader to have the strength of character to deal with the unpleasant issues and conflicts that may arise.
