Best Practices for Winning the Worst Leader Award

Written by Judy W Bell on . Posted in Leadership

We see so much written on how to be a good leader.  Let’s look at the flip side of the equation and see what qualities make the top of the lists for winning the Worst Leader Award. Top of the lists:
  • Untrustworthy
  • Failing credibility
  • Doesn’t really like people
  • Financial focus only
  • Bully mentality
  • Naysayer to new ideas
  • Know-it-all personality
  • Self-focused
  • Theory X management style
Middle of the lists:
  • Not an effective teacher
  • Has stopped learning
  • Does not keep up with changing trends
  • Poor communication skills
  • Silo management style
  • Low on empathy scale
  • Has stopped growing and learning
Do any of the above traits sound familiar?  Do you recognize yourself in some?  Do you recognize your manager in some? A good Executive Coach can help you be a more effective leader.  Let us help facilitate that process.  For more information on Executive Coaching, Leadership Development, or Emotional Intelligence call us at 901-757-4434 or 1-800-452-4036
