As a leadership communications coach, I have created a new program, "Grade Yourself as a Leader," in which I have identified 22 traits that successful leaders possess. Following is an overview of those traits. Which ones do you need to work on to reach your next level of leadership? <br></font></p><p><font face="verdana" size="-1">some of the most basic traits:</font></p><ul><li><strong>Honest —</strong> Display sincerity, integrity, and candor in all your actions. Deceptive behavior will not inspire trust. </li> <li><strong>Competent —</strong> Base your actions on reason and moral principles. Do not make decisions based on childlike emotional desires or feelings. </li><li><strong>Forward-looking —</strong> Set goals and have a vision of the future. The vision must be owned throughout the organization. Effective leaders envision what they want and how to get it. They habitually pick priorities stemming from their basic values. </li><li><strong>Inspiring —</strong> Display confidence in all that you do. By showing endurance in mental, physical, and spiritual stamina, you will inspire others to reach for new heights. Take charge when necessary. </li><li><strong>Intelligent —</strong> Read, study, and seek challenging assignments. </li><li><strong>Fair-minded —</strong> Show fair treatment to all people. Prejudice is the enemy of justice. Display empathy by being sensitive to the feelings, values, interests, and well-being of others. </li><li><strong>Broad-minded —</strong> Seek out diversity. </li><li><strong>Courageous —</strong> Have the perseverance to accomplish a goal, regardless of the seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Display a confident calmness when under stress. </li><li><strong>Straightforward —</strong> Use sound judgment to make a good decisions at the right time. </li><li><strong>Imaginative —</strong> Make timely and appropriate changes in your thinking, plans, and methods. Show creativity by thinking of new and better goals, ideas, and solutions to problems. Be innovative! </li></ul><p><font face="verdana" size="-1"><b>Positive</b> - You set the tone for your environment. An optimistic attitude from a leader can carry over to others. What type of tone are you setting at the shop? Is it one of optimism or one of pessimism? Confidence is contagious; so is the lack of it. Employees mirror the tone that leaders set. Be an encourager. </font></p><p><font face="verdana" size="-1"><b>Responsible</b> - Leaders accept challenges as well as successes. If an employee makes a mistake, it is your responsibility to help him or her improve. Employees will never respect a leader who deflects criticism toward the team. Successful leaders think of themselves as "we," not "I." It is a leader's responsibility to ensure that everyone shares in the team's success. </font><font face="verdana" size="-1">And these are some of the traits. <br></font></p><p><br></p><p><font size="3">How do you think a good leader manages crisis under stressful situations?</font></p><p><font size="3">I think that as leaders we have to first be able to keep both our teammates and ourselves calm before doing anything. We should discuss the root of where the stress is coming from and dealt with it correctly. The leader should also listen to his or her teammates' opinion and understand how they feel and encourage everyone to be and stay on the right track. Finally the leader must go through the obstacles with the team together. <br> </font></p><p><font size="3"><br></font></p><p>sources:</p><p><a href="http://www.asashop.org/autoinc/jan2005/manage.htm">http://www.asashop.org/autoinc/jan2005/manage.htm</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.nwlink.com/~donclark/leader/leadchr.html">http://www.nwlink.com/~donclark/leader/leadchr.html</a></p><p>Princeton Poh<br></p> <p><font size="3"></font></p> Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-831972249918695132.post-33828997626427565912011-03-22T11:58:00.001+08:002011-03-22T11:58:50.616+08:00eLearning CE: Activity 3 Muhammad Hamidshah Bin Nasharuddin(12)<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(68, 68, 68); line-height: 20px; "><div><font size="3"><strong>Research</strong> on lives of a leader.</font></div> <ul><li style="list-style-position: outside; list-style-type: square; "><font size="3">What traits do they possess?</font></li></ul></span></div>Honesty - Have to display sincerity, integrity and candor in all the actions.<div> If we don't follow honesty, we will not inspire trust.</div><div><br></div><div>Competent - The actions should be based on reasons and moral principles. </div><div>We should not anyhow make decisions.</div><div><br></div> <div>Forward looking - We have to set our own goals for our future and have a vision of the future. </div><div>Effective leaders envision what they want and how to get it.</div><div><br></div><div>Inspiring - We must be confident in every step we take. </div> <div>In that way we can inspire others to reach for new heights.</div><div><br></div><div>Intelligent - Read, study and seek challenging assignments.</div><div><br></div><div>Fair-minded - We have to treat everyone fairly.

It is essential as it sets an optimistic environment for your team mates. Moreover, a leader must be responsible in whatever he/she does. This is vital as leaders need to allow their team mates to improve. Thus, it is their responsibility to help them improve. Leaders also have to be good listeners. They must make sure they do not become bossy as to order others what to do but also listen to others opinion especially when discussing on a certain project. Communication is crucial as a leader so as to convey any messages over to the team e.g telling them what to do. </div> <div style="text-align: left;">Having the skills above is not enough. In a crisis, leaders must act fast and not hurriedly. This is crucial as not to spark chaos within the team. Even before doing this, leaders are supposed to understand the occurring situation and react to that situation. Last but not least, if the crisis causes chaos, no one might be taking control. Leaders have to use this opportunity to take control and prevent the crisis from getting worse.</div> <div style="text-align: left;"><br></div><div style="text-align: left;">Modified from sources:</div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.asashop.org/autoinc/jan2005/manage.htm">http://www.asashop.org/autoinc/jan2005/manage.htm</a></div> <div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://blogs.hbr.org/cs/2011/01/how_a_good_leader_reacts_to_a.html">http://blogs.hbr.org/cs/2011/01/how_a_good_leader_reacts_to_a.html</a></div> Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-831972249918695132.post-56779511754586643072011-03-22T10:12:00.001+08:002011-03-22T10:12:23.902+08:00eLearning CE: Activity 3 - Darren Lim Ming Xuan (7)What traits do leader possess:<div><br></div><div>1.

They also have to listen to the people they are working with, as well as recognize their hard work, communicate with them, and be fun! </i>No one likes a dull and boring leader, right? I think that good leaders do not blow up in anger when faced with a crisis, in fact, they stay calm as ever while finding out a way that makes the crisis a win-win end. If not, they will try to make the crisis blow over, to try to soften it down. They could also try to relieve a little of the stress in the situation, until when they come to their wits' end, they will have to take more drastic measures. </b><div> <b><br></b></div><div><b><br></b></div><div><b><br></b></div><div><b>Resources: <a href="http://www.asashop.org/autoinc/jan2005/manage.htm">http://www.asashop.org/autoinc/jan2005/manage.htm</a></b></div><div><b><br></b></div> <div><b>And my own experiences, and thinkings <img src="cid:330@goomoji.gmail" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0.2ex; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0.2ex; vertical-align: middle; " goomoji="330"></b></div> Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-831972249918695132.post-90934981953164422632011-03-22T09:04:00.001+08:002011-03-22T09:04:13.041+08:00Qualities of a good leader<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css"> <title></title> <meta name="Generator" content="Cocoa HTML Writer"> <meta name="CocoaVersion" content="1038.35"> <style type="text/css"> p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; line-height: 20.0px; font: 18.0px Arial; color: #444444} p.p2 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; line-height: 20.0px; font: 12.0px Arial; color: #444444; min-height: 14.0px} p.p3 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; line-height: 18.0px; font: 14.0px Arial; color: #333233} p.p4 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; line-height: 18.0px; font: 14.0px Arial; color: #333233; min-height: 16.0px} p.p5 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; line-height: 20.0px; font: 18.0px Arial; color: #444444; min-height: 21.0px} p.p6 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; line-height: 20.0px; font: 12.0px Arial; color: #444444} p.p7 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; line-height: 20.0px; font: 12.0px Arial; color: #2100ad} span.s1 {letter-spacing: 0.0px} span.s2 {text-decoration: underline ; letter-spacing: 0.0px} </style> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">What traits do good leaders possess?</span></p> <p class="p2"><span class="s1"></span><br></p> <p class="p3"><span class="s1">1.</span><span class="s2">Vision</span><span class="s1"> </span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s1"></span><br></p> <p class="p3"><span class="s1">They view things as what they could be and not what they are. </span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s1"></span><br></p> <p class="p3"><span class="s1">2. </span><span class="s2">Wise</span><span class="s1"> </span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s1"></span><br></p> <p class="p3"><span class="s1">Good leaders are strategic, wise and perceptive. </span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s1"></span><br></p> <p class="p3"><span class="s1">3. </span><span class="s2">Passionate</span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s1"></span><br></p> <p class="p3"><span class="s1">They operate with such a high level of passion that they get consumed in it. </span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s1"></span><br></p> <p class="p3"><span class="s1">4. </span><span class="s2">Compassion</span><span class="s1"> </span></p> <p class="p4"><span class="s1"></span><br></p> <p class="p3"><span class="s1">Good leaders have compassion for their supporters or employees.

Positive as in encourage your group members/employees when they're not doing well and encourage them to do better even if they have done well. Responsible as in if your group members/employees make a mistake, it is the leader's responsibility to help him/her improve.<br><br> I think a leader should stay calm and think carefully before doing anything in a crisis situation as a wrong move could worsen the situation.

During the crisis, the good leader should have a cool head, not get to angry when being criticise. Try not to leave early or get sick often. Do what he/she said as soon as possible.<BR></FONT></FONT> Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-831972249918695132.post-29559349900557856192011-03-20T11:31:00.001+08:002011-03-20T11:31:39.143+08:002011 eLearning Week: Instructions for ACTIVITY 3<div class="gmail_quote"> <div><font size="3"><strong>Research</strong> on lives of a leader. </font></div> <ul> <li><font size="3">What traits do they possess? </font></li> <li><font size="3">How do you think a good leader manages crisis under stressful situations?</font></li></ul> <div><font size="3"><strong><font color="#0000ff">Submission of Work </font></strong></font></div> <ol> <li><font color="#000000" size="3">Post your research in the blog (as shown in the table below) <u>via email</u>.</font></li> <ul> <li><font color="#000000" size="3">The class Character Education blog is newly created.
