There is a famous saying in management that a flock of sheep led by a wolf can defeat a flock of wolves led by a sheep. This sentence shows the importance of leaders, but also implies the strength of the team. A friend gave me a book "Effective Leaders" and asked me to help write an experience. I finally succeeded in copying from east to west. Now share the article with friends who are interested in being the leader of the unit!
Leadership is the core competence of a leader, and enhancing the leadership of a leader plays a central role in strengthening the capacity building of a leader. Leaders should properly use power factors and non-power factors to establish authority and make organization members gather around themselves. Leaders should not only strengthen their study and improve their quality; We should also establish a good image and strengthen management. We should pay attention to self-discipline, set an example, drive, influence and promote the improvement of the work of the majority of members of the organization with leadership charm, and work hard to achieve the same goal. In practical work, in order to constantly improve the leadership of leaders, I think we can start from several aspects, such as constantly strengthening study, improving personal quality, establishing a good image and paying attention to management.
First, become a learning leader.
Leaders shoulder the historical mission of promoting enterprise development and career progress, and should strengthen their study, actively practice, be brave in innovation and keep pace with the times. We should enhance our awareness of learning, constantly update our existing knowledge, and always maintain a professional sensitivity and desire for all new ideas, new ideas, new knowledge and new methods that are conducive to promoting and improving our work. Through continuous learning, I will increase my knowledge and improve my ability, so as to constantly consolidate the foundation for improving my own leadership.
Leaders should strengthen their study, and from the content point of view, they should be eclectic, high, deep and broad.
1. Strengthen theoretical study. As a leader, only when he is sober and firm in theory can he be sober and firm in politics, thus ensuring the correct orientation of his leadership. We should strengthen the study of Marxism-Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory and Theory of Three Represents in peacetime. Strive to master the theoretical system and spiritual essence, arm our minds and guide our work with the developed Marxism–Leninism, so as to "stand high and see far".
2. Strengthen the study of professional knowledge. According to the needs of work, we should extensively study modern economy, management, education, science and technology, law, postal service, marketing and other aspects. At the same time, through extensive study, we can broaden our horizons, broaden our thinking, innovate our thinking, and enhance our ability to make scientific decisions and guide practice.
3. Pay attention to learning the art of leadership and modern management concepts. Guide your own management practice with scientific theory, strive to strengthen the planning of work, scientifically set stage goals, create a relaxed, harmonious and enterprising team atmosphere, and rationally allocate manpower, financial resources and material resources, so that team effectiveness can be best released.
Leaders should strengthen their study. In terms of methods, they should not only pay attention to reading "books with words", but also pay attention to reading "books without words".
One is to learn from books. Learn systematic theoretical knowledge from books, learn new ideas and concepts, increase your knowledge and broaden your horizons.
The second is to attach importance to social learning. Learn from others. Confucius said, "In a threesome, there must be a teacher." . As a leader, we should attach importance to learning, dare to learn from others' good ideas, good styles and good methods, learn from others' strengths and make up for others' shortcomings. Learn from life. Life is the best teacher. As long as you pay attention to all aspects of your daily life and work, you should be knowledgeable everywhere. Leaders should be conscientious, explore, summarize, accumulate and improve in practice.
Third, we should attach importance to connecting with reality and use it flexibly. "The things on the paper are very shallow. If you know it, you have to do it." Whether we learn from books, learn from others' strengths or base ourselves on our own experience, we should combine the local actual situation at that time, adhere to the spirit of seeking truth from facts, make concrete analysis of specific situations and carry out our work creatively.
Only by constantly strengthening learning can leaders continuously improve their knowledge, ability and quality. Only by constantly enriching and perfecting ourselves can we better improve our leadership, have a better influence on the members of the organization, promote the development of all work and promote the development of the organization.
Second, improve personal leadership style.
As a leader in the new era, he should have high leadership charm. Leadership charm affects the exertion of leadership ability. Leadership charm helps to unite, influence subordinates and enhance leadership effect. To improve the charisma of leaders, we must have three qualities: cultural quality, moral quality and charisma. These three qualities must be organically combined to effectively improve the comprehensive quality and leadership charm of leaders. Therefore, an ambitious leader should constantly strengthen the cultivation of cultural quality, moral quality and personality charm. In real life and work, leaders should study hard, be diligent in thinking and be strict with themselves; Keep your promise and your actions will bear fruit. What to do in daily life and work:
1. Infect employees with love. Leaders should not put on airs as leaders, but be approachable and amiable, and communicate with subordinates on an equal footing. Only in this way can we gain the support and follow of others and become a veritable leader. Otherwise, it will be eccentric from top to bottom, and even if other qualities of leaders are excellent, it is difficult to get everyone's support and follow.
2. Respect is the most precious quality. "Leadership is not a person, a position or a project, but the interaction between managers and followers, that is, the scope of activities." Therefore, leaders must establish close and good working relations with their followers. If subordinates know, understand and trust leaders, they will willingly support and follow them. On the other hand, if the relationship between managers and subordinates is alienated, mutual suspicion, suspicion and even hostility, subordinates will gradually drift away from leaders, alienate morality and respect each other.
3. Be innovative. Innovative consciousness is an essential quality of an excellent leader. Leaders' innovative consciousness is related to unknown undertakings and actions that have not yet been set foot in. Leaders can be keenly aware of the direction and flavor of development, fleeting opportunities, and the development direction of organizations and individuals with foresight in combination with social development trends, thus pointing out goals for organizations and individuals. Leaders with innovative consciousness can get the support, love and support of their subordinates.
4. Make work an art ... To be a respected and beloved leader, you must have a good work art and carry forward a solid and in-depth work style, a pragmatic style and a pioneering style. Explore boldly, forge ahead and work creatively. To establish a good style of work, we must stay away from the bad atmosphere of not telling the truth, not doing practical things and not seeking practical results. It is necessary to close the relationship between cadres and the masses, fully mobilize the enthusiasm, creativity and initiative of the masses, and unite as one to do a good job. Especially with the deepening of reform and the continuous development of modernization, many new problems, new situations and new contradictions have emerged, and it is even more necessary to strengthen the art of work.
Third, shape your own personality charm.
The most important thing in leadership charm is personality charm. "its body is right, but it does not make; His body is not right, although he does not obey. " It can be seen that the ancients have long noticed the important influence of the leader's own image on the organization members. A successful leader should have such charm:
1. will be charming.
Will is a person's psychological quality, but also a kind of character, which is contained in the heart and embodied in action. Will is the decisive, patient, firm and tenacious characteristics of leaders in their leadership activities. Will is always accompanied by lofty goals. Any leader with lofty ideals must constantly strive to achieve his lofty goals. Therefore, leaders should always put * * *' s goal and * * *' s cause in the first place, stimulate the enthusiasm, initiative and initiative of the organization members, and let the organization members feel the driving force of the goal and cause. Give every member of the organization a chance to give full play to his talents. Let the members of the organization feel the significance and value of individuals in the organization. Encourage members of the organization to take the initiative and be brave in pioneering, and unite everyone's wisdom and strength with goals and undertakings. We must always convince the members of the organization that personal interests are closely related to the cause of the organization. Through unremitting efforts, we will be able to achieve the expected goals, achieve career success and realize our own life value. Leaders should constantly inspire the lasting enthusiasm and inexhaustible motivation of organization members. Constantly strengthen the dedication and sense of responsibility of the members of the organization, unite people with their career development and sense of responsibility, strive to carry forward the entrepreneurial spirit, actively think and plan the work objectives and methods, and do their best to complete the work tasks, so as to reap the joy of career success and stimulate higher entrepreneurial passion and work enthusiasm.
2. The charm of faith.
"We all come from all corners of the country and come together for a common goal." This sentence reveals the leader's belief charm very aptly; Although the positions of leaders and employees are different, the most important bond between them is the common belief goal. Therefore, leaders should always put * * * the same belief and goal and the same cause in the first place, stimulate the enthusiasm, initiative and initiative of organization members, and let them feel the driving force of goals and causes.
For excellent leaders, faith is the necessary psychological quality for successful leaders and the basis for leaders to achieve great things. Only when leaders are full of the belief of winning will they be convinced of their own cause, take firm steps, have the courage to overcome any difficulties and meet challenges from all sides at any time. The guiding force of faith is not limited to the believers themselves, it can also influence others, which is an important reason why faith is attractive. If a leader has a strong belief, his career is half done. He can use his own beliefs to influence employees, make subordinates agree and convince them, and then be willing to serve the goals of leaders.
3. Personality charm.
The power of personality is infinite. A leader who only pays attention to power without cultivating personality will never lead a good job, let alone improve his leadership ability. Leaders must respect the personal dignity of the members of the organization, care for and cherish the members of the organization, and give them opportunities to study, work and develop. In the process of work, we should not only achieve the development goals of the organization, but also promote the development and progress of the members of the organization. We should pay close attention to the interests, needs and concerns of members of the organization and create an environment for members of the organization to receive trust and training support. Never condescend, arrogant, put on airs, show prestige, and pretend to be an "official" who gives orders and is arrogant. Don't unilaterally think that "distance" produces authority and artificially sets emotional barriers. In the eyes of organization members, a leader should always be a mentor at work, a good friend in life, and a person who can always be trusted and relied on.
Fourth, establish a correct view of employing people.
People are the most active factor in management activities. Leaders should firmly establish the "people-oriented" management concept, by establishing a scientific concept of employing people, adhere to the correct orientation of employing people, stimulate everyone's enthusiasm, initiative and initiative, and concentrate the thoughts and energy of all members of the organization on the success of the organization and the realization of personal values.
1. Pay attention to education and guidance.
Leaders should strengthen the construction of their own ideological style and set an example. Only in this way can they be convincing and instructive, and can they better influence their subordinates, become their learning models and guide them to establish a correct world outlook, outlook on life and values.
2. Achieve a first-class career with first-class talents.
The development of career needs talents, and the key to career success lies in talents. Leaders should establish a scientific concept of employing people and adhere to the correct orientation of employing people. Leaders should pay attention to the concept of career first and having both ability and political integrity, and dare to use talents who are stronger than themselves. Strive to find talents, make good use of talents and retain talents; Strengthen the cultivation of enterprising and professional talents, actively recommend them, and strive to be capable and knowledgeable, so that all kinds of talents can find their place and develop their strengths. In the process of selecting and employing people, we should listen to the opinions of members extensively, act in strict accordance with systems and procedures, conscientiously implement democratic centralism, and strive to select real talents and provide them with a stage to display their talents. By selecting and employing people correctly, to show the clear concept of leaders' love for talents is not only conducive to mobilizing the enthusiasm of subordinates, but also establishing the image of the leader himself, carrying forward a good atmosphere and producing good results.
3. Strengthen system construction.
While strengthening education and guidance, strengthen system construction and strengthen supervision and evaluation. First of all, leaders should take the initiative to accept everyone's supervision. It seems that leaders are supervised by subordinates, but the actual effect is to help improve the leadership of leaders. By establishing a power operation mechanism with reasonable structure, scientific configuration, strict procedures and effective constraints, leaders and subordinates, departments and staff can supervise each other and break the concealment of power operation; By establishing an evaluation system, the members of the organization are comprehensively evaluated from the aspects of morality, ability, diligence and performance, and the corresponding reward and punishment system is improved, so that those who are loyal to their duties, honest and have outstanding achievements can be praised; Punish those who are slack in their work and have average grades, so as to help the right path, curb evil spirits and mobilize the enthusiasm of organization members.
In short, leaders should improve their "leadership" through internal and external training; It is necessary to properly use power factors and non-power factors to establish authority so that members of the organization can gather around themselves; We should strengthen our study and improve our quality; We should also establish a good image and strengthen management. We should pay attention to self-discipline, set an example, drive, influence and promote the improvement of the work of the majority of members of the organization with leadership charm, and work hard to achieve the same goal of postal enterprises.
