“The only sure way for your people to lose is if they give up. Your lack of encouragement should never be the reason a person quits. A leader must always keep believing in people, no matter what.”
No. 1 – Have confidence in your people.
* See each person as a winner.
* Expect success from everyone.
* Let people know you think they can win.
No. 2 – Recognize each accomplishment, no matter how small.
* Show people that you know what they do.
* Make each small accomplishment seem major – it really is.
* Make your praise public – people love to be recognized among their peers.
No. 3 – Sell the dream, again.
* Never think you can stop “selling the dream.”
* People need to be constantly reminded of the rewards of their hard work.
* Encourage people to talk about their personal goals and dreams. (You could have a “dream” session and ask each person to tell his personal “success dream.”)
No. 4 – Don’t give up on people when they make mistakes.
* Live with them through the tough times, as well as the easy times.
* Care about each person as an individual.
* Allow people to learn from their mistakes. Never criticize.
AND…Never be guilty of giving up AS A LEADER.
