Leaders help themselves and others to do the right things. They set direction, build an inspiring vision, and create something new. Leadership is about mapping out where you need to go to “win” as a team or an organization; and it is dynamic, exciting, and inspiring.
Yet while leaders set the direction, they must also use management skills to guide their people to the right destination, in a smooth and efficient way. Here are 20 leadership principles to think about whether you are a new leader or have been in leadership for 30 years:
