Leadership Series - Week 3: Have A Plan

If You Fail To Plan, Then You Plan To Fail

Welcome and thank you for returning to the Straight Up Mindset Blog. This is the August edition of the blog. This month's series is the Leadership Series and this week's topic is Have a Plan.

You have established a vision, you are empathetic towards your team. The last part now is having a plan and executing that plan. You have to realize that the first 2 leadership qualities I mentioned do not really matter if you don't get the job done. If you as a leader don't deliver, then any trust or belief you did have will eventually disappear.

Being able to execute your vision and plan is not a skill that many people possess, but it is a quality that a leader must master in order to become effective. All great leaders in history had the ability to implement all 3 skillsets to achieve their goal. Now this doesn't require extraordinary talent, but it does require some self-awareness and hard work to build those skills up. This is not a simple task. I am constantly working towards this and fail and learn something new everyday. As long as you are heading in the right direction that's all that matters.

A lot of it will come through experience and mentorship. You will take a few bumps and bruises while trying to work on the skills it requires to become a good leader. It also helps if you can find someone to take you under their wing and guide you through the process. Just make sure that everyone is held accountable for their portion and EXECUTE, EXECUTE, EXECUTE!!!
