A leader who can articulate his/her vision for the future and is willing to collaborate with others to achieve this goal will be able to accumulate followers who believe they are the future!]]> 2017-10-22 21:29:11 UTC https://padlet.com/traceyprince_2007/41elexb1pb47/wish/199397380 traceyprince_2007 https://padlet.com/traceyprince_2007/41elexb1pb47/wish/199399405 A leader has to be able to recognize when they are needed in the front of the line and when they can step aside to let others propel the course.  

Being able to communicate and collaborate with others may seem rudimentary to some but for a leader, these characteristics must be honed and developed over time.  They are not innate as a leader rarely can predict how others will react to new ideas or goals.  A leader does, however,  have to be flexible and willing to change in order to be successful.  

They have to communicate how they want to implement changes or be able to admit that an action will divert everyone away from the end goal. How they articulate this to their followers can be both verbal or non-verbal but an effective leader would be able to do so with ease. They would also be able to come together with their workers and re-build or start over as a team. ]]> 2017-10-22 21:53:23 UTC https://padlet.com/traceyprince_2007/41elexb1pb47/wish/199399405 traceyprince_2007 https://padlet.com/traceyprince_2007/41elexb1pb47/wish/199403816 There is always room for improvement but it is critical that leaders are open to refurbishing their inter-personal and communication skills.  

Leader have to be humble enough to admit that they still have room for growth and that will make all the difference in the outcome/success in a project.]]> 2017-10-22 22:47:20 UTC https://padlet.com/traceyprince_2007/41elexb1pb47/wish/199403816 traceyprince_2007 https://padlet.com/traceyprince_2007/41elexb1pb47/wish/199404498 2017-10-22 22:56:33 UTC https://padlet.com/traceyprince_2007/41elexb1pb47/wish/199404498 traceyprince_2007 https://padlet.com/traceyprince_2007/41elexb1pb47/wish/199404589 Leaders work with their team to achieve a common goal.
