How To Be A Good Leader

- by Myron Bailey

So, you’re the boss. Does that mean you have to be a jerk? Of course not! But it does mean that you need to be clear about expectations and hold people accountable for them, while also encouraging them to do their best work. Luckily for all of us, there are plenty of ways to do all of these things in one fell swoop:

Be clear about what you want to accomplish.

To be a good leader, you need to be clear about what you want to accomplish. You should start by asking yourself what your team’s mission is and how each member can contribute to that mission.

For example, we all tend to learn best when we learn in small doses versus large chunks of information all at once. In fact, research shows that if we receive too much information at once, our brains tend to shut down—that’s why so many people have trouble remembering what they read on Wikipedia or Google (not to mention their own emails). However, if you break down key concepts into smaller pieces and then practice them over time with repetition… well then suddenly it becomes much easier to gain mastery at any given skill set!

Leadership is best taught in small doses.

Leadership is a skill that can be learned. It’s not a title, it’s a set of behaviors. Leadership is not about being the boss, it’s about getting the job done. And most importantly: leadership isn’t about being liked–it’s about getting results!

Leadership is best taught in small doses because people tend to resist change if they feel overwhelmed or threatened by it–and this …

1.  Understand Your Kid:

You must be able to know your kids. Know and understand when he learns and how he learns best. Different kids fare differently in different environments. If you think that your child understands more in groups, create a study session that includes a group, perhaps on Zoom or on Microsoft Office Teams.
