When you do research or talk to people or follow people like me you will hear a lot of suggestions. Many times you get confused or you will put yourself under a lot of pressure.
I will say relax. Take a chill pill. There is no single right way to be a leader. If that was there then all of us would have already learned it and this world had become a paradise.
I will give you 4 simple suggestions if you are struggling.
1. Be yourself, be authentic.
Nobody likes to talk to a person who is constantly pretending to be someone they're not, especially a leader.
If you are an introvert and suddenly start behaving like an extrovert to impress the team it will backfire and at the same time it drains you.
2. Take care of the people around you.
3. Learn from the leaders whom you admire.
Find the leaders who are like you and whom you admire as a leader. Talk to them, get mentored by them and learn from there. Learn at your own pace.
4. Make sure that you and your team finish the project within the designated timeline.
Your team says you are a great guy but the project doesn’t finish on time then your company won’t take it lightly and you & your team will lose the jobs. There is no good in it. right?
