How Leaders CREATE Ideas


By Richard Brody

If one hopes to become a real leader, he must be prepared, ready, willing, and able, to behave like one, and proceed, accordingly! True leaders must go, well beyond, accepting the same - old, same - old, ways and methods, and proactively, introduce, and CREATE meaningful, relevant, effective ideas, which have the best opportunity, to make quality changes, for the better. All too often, we observe individuals, articulate a message, for, so - called, change, rather than, focusing on, how to do, what's needed, and necessary, to perceive, conceive, create, and implement, relevant action plans, which will assist, in seeking the best, most viable, sustainable solutions. With that in mind, this article will attempt to briefly examine, and discuss, using the mnemonic solution, why this, is essential, to meaningful, quality leadership.

1. Character; creative; clever; cooperative: It requires, someone with a quality of character, who is driven, by the need, to create, a better organization, which is relevant and sustainable. Going beyond, the same - old, same - old, ways, a true leader must be creative, as well as clever, so he can see, the alternatives, and opt for, the best path to follow. Only when that person, is cooperative (rather than polarizing), will he inspire others, to join him, in his quest!

2. Relevant; reliable; responsive: What good are any plans, unless/ until, they focus on addressing, relevant issues and challenges, in a reliable, responsive way, and looking beyond the ordinary, to seek the extraordinary results?

3. Empathy; emphasis: Leading should be based on the needs, priorities, and perceptions, of those one serves and represents. Only, when one dedicates, himself, to effectively listening, and consistently, learning, will he proceed with the level of genuine empathy, which followers will be inspired, and motivated by! One's emphasis should be, on doing what's best, for those, he is serving and representing!

4. Attitude; aptitude; attention; articulate: How can anyone create and develop relevant ideas, until he proceeds, with a positive, can - do, attitude? A well - developed, refined, aptitude, and a willingness, to realistically, pay attention, to what's needed, and necessary, directs the right person, to pay keen attention, to the necessary focus, and become the best, possible, leader! If, this is combined, with the self - confidence, to articulate an inspiring, motivating message, his ideas develop, a life, of their own!

5. Timely; trends: One can't make a difference, for the better, unless he proceeds, forward, and takes well - considered, timely action! Creativity, combined with understanding the options, and taking advantage of appropriate trends, transforms, mere ideas, to meaningful actions!

6. Energize; excellence: Well - developed, creative ideas, should prioritize, energizing, inspiring and motivating, constituents, to a stronger connection! However, this demands, a commitment, by a leader, to proceed, consistently, demanding his highest degree, of personal excellence!

A leader must, proactively, CREATE ideas, which make a difference, for the better! Are you the right person, to pursue leadership?

Kecemburuan semacam ini

Jacey melemparkan cangkir kopi kaca, (Mug Kaca Berinsulasi Dinding Ganda Zwilling), melintasi dapur. Itu menghantam dinding yang baru dicat (Behr, Sweet Coconut Milk, M230), dan hancur menjadi triliunan kepingan. "Inilah yang telah kamu lakukan pada kami!" teriaknya, suaranya berderak karena cemburu, kuku jarinya yang terawat (Orly Cold As Ice - perawatan bernapas + warna) menusuk udara ke arah tumpukan puing-puing kaca. Blayne menundukkan kepalanya, dagu keduanya mengenai dadanya terlebih dahulu. "Maaf, sayang," gumamnya. "Maaf?! Maaf!" Dia mengambil sekotak Wheat Thins dan mengangkatnya di atas kepalanya. "Tolong jangan melempar yang lain!" Blayne memohon, berdiri dari posisi setengah duduk di bangku logam di dapur. Ini adalah bangku yang sangat tidak nyaman (Bangku Meja Grejsi dengan Bingkai Logam), tetapi Jacey menyukai cara logam itu memantulkan sinar matahari di sore hari, jadi itulah yang dia beli. Dia mencondongkan tubuh ke arahnya,...

Thirteenth step

My grandmother attends the church basement on Tuesday evenings. I saw him there among the metal folding chairs and antique coffee pots, his figure trembling under the fluorescent lights that buzzed like dying insects. She wears the same powder blue pullover she was buried in, the one with pearl buttons that catch the light like little moons. Others can't see it, of course. They just feel a sudden chill as they pass by where she is, or smell the ghostly smell of her Shalimar perfume mixing with the smell of burnt coffee that never leaves these rooms. But I see clearly. He's been following me to AA meetings for three months since I got my first white chip after five years of being back in the bottle. "Your grandmother was my godmother in 1985," old Pete told me after tonight's meeting, hands shaking as he poured a seven-pack of Sweet'n Low into his coffee. "Toughest godmother I ever had. She saved my life." "Mine, too," I said, not specif...
