Portion of title Essentials for great personal leadership
Contents Walking the leadership tightrope. Effective leaders must learn how to be empathetic, supportive bosses while influencing staff members to make necessary and often difficult changes -- Four ways to get a grip. Better time management, improved concentration and breakthrough communication with problem co-workers can go a long way toward reducing stress. Here's how to do it -- Inviting the soul to work. Many employees choose to work in a hospital because they want to make a difference. Use that motivation to energize and inspire them -- How do you say thanks? The single greatest motivator of employees is appreciation. Use it genuinely and frequently, and you'll see performance improve -- Healing a troubled relationship. If two team members are at odds with each other, wasting time and sapping energy from the group, insist that they sit down and talk it out -- The meeting meter. Have staff members evaluate meetings at their end so you can run future meetings more efficiently -- E-mail etiquette. E-mail can save valuable time and greatly improve efficiency, but misusing it causes interpersonal problems that drain everyone's energy and time -- Starts with me. Give employees permission to stop problem behavior among colleagues as soon as it starts -- Healthy respect. An acknowledgment of the essential dignity of all, healthy respect can transform a contentious environment into a healing one -- The management coach. Leaders who effectively develop their managers enhance the organization, improve their own performance and ease their burden -- A five-point plan for breakthroughs. Executives need to lead with courage and example if they are going to overcome entrenched mind-sets.
