That Our Community may have a voice for change and impact ~ Dr. Eniola Ajayi
Effective leaders ensure that people feel strong and capable. in every major survey on practices of effective leaders, trust in the leader is essential if other people are going to follow that person over time. People must experience the leader as believable, credible, and trustworthy. One of the ways trust is developed--whether is the leader or any other person-is through consistency in behaviour. Trust is also established when words and deeds are congruent.
People want to work for leaders who fire them up, not who put out their fire. They want leaders who will lift them up and help them fly, not who keep them down. They want mentors who will help them reach their potential and succeed. If they perceive that their leaders is more concerned with maintaining their authority and protecting their position, they will eventually find someone else to work for.
Intelligence is no substitute for information.
Enthusiasm is no substitute for capacity.
Willingness is no substitute for experiece
