If you are a sales leader—or want to be one someday, you must habitually ask yourself these questions. These are the questions that separate true leaders from those who talk a good talk, but fail to grasp authentic leadership.
This was shared from PPAI
1. How will I apply today what I learned yesterday? Leaders realize that having knowledge but failing to use it is pointless. Considering the speed of change, it is imperative to apply what we learn immediately.
2. What will I learn today? The best way to learn is to have a mind that is open and actively seeking to learn. Too many people stumble upon knowledge. The leader, on the other hand, is actively seeking it out in every situation.
3. Who will I help today? Leadership is all about helping people achieve things they didn’t think were possible, and we do that by helping people on a daily basis.
4. What progress am I making against my goals and the goals of others in my circle of influence? We are all far more goal-oriented than we give ourselves credit for. Leadership is about helping to allocate resources of all types in the most effective manner to allow for the achievement of goals.
5. Who can I talk with today to help me gain clearer insights? Nobody has the corner on knowledge. The best way we learn is by tapping the minds of others. Along the way, we will not only gain new insights, but also be able to share insights with those to whom we talk.
6. At the end of the day, will I have been true to my values and my integrity? There is nothing to be gained if we sell our soul. Remaining true to who we are is, without a doubt, the most important thing we can do every day, every month, every year.
Think about each of these questions and the value of asking yourself these questions each day. Leadership is not something to be taken lightly.
