We are all motivated by something in our
life. Some are motivated by money, some by a sense of purpose, some by learning
environment, some by cool environment, some need challenging environments so
on… Nothing works for all. Something works for all. Everybody has a dominant
need, which helps changing as they keep growing. In that sense we are all the
same and we are all different. The key is to take other person’s perspective into
consideration. Unless
you see the world the way others sees it, you cannot empower the world to see
it the way you see it.
Leadership is in the ability to step into
other’s shoes and then empowering them to walk in the direction that is right
for them and that is good for all. There is no one way for all the people. Leadership
has to be customized because the persons in your team are different. Different
in terms of skills, competence, background, aspirations etc.
People relate to you not for what you are
with them, but for what they can be when they are with you. Deep relationships
are not built by making you understand me but giving you the confidence that I
have understood you.
Even with your children, they find you
interesting only if you talk to them about what they are interested in. Once they develop
interest in parental company, then you can empower them.
The secret is – To See through the other’s
eyes.
Seek first to understand, then to be
understood – Stephen Covey
Have a wonderful day! Be Happy. In Happiness
lies our prosperity.
