By integrating the servant-led paradigm into their inner lives and professional thinking, today’s leaders can revolutionize heartless corporate strategies that reward the few at the expense of the many. Not many industry revolutions begin with a typical married couple who risk everything to do something they’ve never done before. But that is exactly what Art and Lori Barter did in 2004, when they purchased Datron World Communications.

C OURAGE IS THE FIRST VIRTUE of organizational performance. Consider, for example, all the other concepts that courage connects to in workplace settings. Leadership takes courage because it requires making bold decisions that some people won’t agree with or support. Innovation takes courage because it requires creating ideas that are ground-breaking and tradition-defying; great ideas always start out as blasphemy!

I’ve written frequently about the importance of listening to others. It can make a huge difference to your effectiveness as a leader and it makes up for a multitude of other weaknesses you may have. Funny thing is, I’ve never written anything about listening to yourself. Equally as huge and life changing as listening to others, being aware of your thoughts, emotions, and sensations in your body (yes, all that stuff below your chin) can also make a difference in your leadership.

Our train encountered heavy fog on that winter morning. At one point when visibility was less than 100 meters, I thought the train will not move forward. We had little choice but to stay put and trust that things will start moving. And it did, although quite slowly. It was an interesting setting. When I got down of the train at a quaint station to click some pictures (and also stretch a leg after hours of non-stop journey), my mind went on a train of thoughts as it usually does during travel.

The most innovative businesses tend to be the most diverse. Innovation today is largely a recombinative process whereby ideas are borrowed from disparate fields and mashed together in creative new ways. A great way of achieving this is having a veritable melting pot of backgrounds, classes, nationalities and perspectives in your workforce. Whilst diversity is undoubtedly a good thing, it does require higher levels of coordination than more homogeneous teams.

Every leader experiences periods of ups and downs. Hopefully, more up periods. If you struggle with too many down periods, it might be because you have perfectionist tendencies. Transform yourself into an optimist by: Viewing failure as an opportunity to learn and understand that failure is part of a fulfilling life. Making room for pain. Don't deny yourself permission to feel painful emotions.

Succeeding in business is not something that you can do alone.

This is something every leader must know – about some of the people you are trying to lead. Sadly, many of us learn it the hard way. The reality is leaders often try to please everyone.
