Principles of Leadership
Man without vision shall perish -
Proverbs 29:18
“Dream what you want to be, the kind of
life you wish to build and believe in that dream. Be prepared to work for
it. Always remember each dream is important because it is your dream, it
is your future, and it is worth working for” John Maxwell.
Peoples Principles
- Our success, fulfilment and happiness depend
upon our ability to relate to people effectively.
- The key to relating to others is putting you
in someone else’s place instead of putting them in place.
- Treat people the way you want to be treated.
- See people as assets, not adversaries. If you
see them as assets, you will bring out the potential in them. If you
see them as adversaries, you will be continually sparring with them,
trying to defend your position.
- Remember, the word “WE” is the most important
word in the English language.

Evangelist John Wesley
said when asked, “Why people seem to be drawn to him?” he answered “Well,
you see, when you set yourself on fire, people just love to come and see you
burn”.
Do you want to increase your
interest with others?
- Develop your creativity – ability to say
things in an unusual way.
- Develop your confidence – ability to do things
in an unusual way.
Charismatic people
can do both, develop these both traits and people will stand up and take
notice.
How does a person become productive?
- Find your strength and then find others who
need your strength. Use your strength to help others.
- Self centered people dominate others.
Influence:
- What happens to you, speaks of your Circumstances.
- What happens in you, speaks of your Character.
- What happens through you, speaks of your
Charisma.
Do you want to learn how to be a
positive influence on others? Five factors come to play.
- Who I am - Position or Title
- Where I am – Location or job.
- Who I know – my sphere of influence.
- What I know – my expertise (this will keep you
in the position long after “who you know” wears off)
- What I do – my production, character, and
credibility
- Pride
- Insecurity
- Moodiness
- Perfectionism
- Over sensitivity
- Negativism
Yes, you can
achieve your dreams. Take one step at a time and believe in yourself no matter
what.
