Recognizing Leadership Qualities
Leadership comes in many forms. In the family, a father is considered the leader of the home; in team sports, the captain or skipper is considered the leader of the team; while the CEO or manager is considered the leader in a company or organizations. The leaders in all three examples have something in common, which is that they guide, manage, and direct others to accomplish different tasks. In the case of the father, his work is to ensure everybody is taken care of in the family financially and otherwise. That of the captain of a team sport is to ensure the other members of his or her team effectively carry out their jobs, and the team wins every match they play. While the job of the CEO or manager is to ensure all employees do their jobs properly and the company is always making a profit.

In general, a person with strong leadership qualities has the capability of making planned and visionary goals and convincing others to pursue these goals. A leader does this by setting specific goals and then motivating others and instilling in them the desire to succeed and achieve those goals. A good leader does not only talk the talk, but he also walks the walk by ensuring he steps up in periods of crisis, and can think creatively in dire situations.
Increase Your Leadership Skills
There are individuals who are what they call natural born leaders; probably due to the fact of where they grew up or their past experiences, they developed strong leadership skills. However, the good thing is that everybody can learn and improve their leadership skills through proper mentoring, guidance, and coaching by individuals who have vast leadership skills. These individuals are known as leadership speakers; they lecture people on various leadership skills and how to become effective leaders. They also help people hone their leadership skills so as to become better leaders.WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING
I interviewed Dave Carey on The Inside Success Show and loved every minute of it. His passion for sharing his experience as a POW in Vietnam and the lessons he learned that apply to life, combined with his strong desire to help other people make the right choices, really made for a great interview. I highly recommend him for any show."Randy Gilbert - Host of The Inside Success Show
“I had followed David Sarkus for many years before he came to speak for my company, Alta Forest Products. His story often inspired me to press further with safety and leadership. In 2015 Dave spoke at the Washington Governor’s Conference—the first time that I saw his speak at a live venue. His message was powerful and hit home to the group of safety committee members that I had brought with me. I finally had the opportunity to have Dave speak for Alta Forest Products, and he delivered his story in his usual manner—with power, emotion, excitement, and influence. He will have you laughing one minute and crying the next. Most of all, he will have you taking a hard look at how you view safety and leadership. He will push you to change your paradigm about safety. He will push you to make your culture for safety one that others will talk about – positively of course. Finally, he will make you think about how you lead others toward creating a lasting impression for safety. I cannot recommend Dave Sarkus enough.”
