In business, Leadership has NOTHING to do with Your Personality type, Heroism, or Inspiring Speeches.
It comes down to these 3 things that make you a stronger & more effective leader…
Hollywood and many business books make you think that to be a great leader, you need to have a certain personality type, and ‘rev people up’ with inspiring words. That stuff works great if you’re rallying people for some life or death charge over the hill, or one-off event. But your business isn’t a once-off event: You’ve got to get your people to do this stuff every single day.
Here are the 3 steps to confidently leading your business…
- First, get control
60% of your results as a leader will come from your team knowing you are “on top of it”.
That means that from now on, people’s actions and commitments are written down, and you manage by the numbers (not by people’s stories).
It should be easy for you to pull a report with the key numbers you use to run your business.

- Then set the culture and clear expectations
Creating a high performance culture has nothing to do with mission statements or grand visions. The business is going to be a reflection of you, so make the culture in your image—then live it, teach it, and train it. If people don’t live the culture, call them on their actions and give them a choice to play, or move on.
- Communicate purposefully
You don’t need to get bogged down in frustrating meetings. I’ll show you how to run a weekly RealityCheck with your team. It’s a quick and simple process that gives you the control info you need, gets your team focussed on the week ahead, in a way that produces accountability and results.
You can take control and get your team delivering results quickly in a complimentary 60 minute Vision and Direction Setting coaching session with Steven Smit. Click here to request a Free Business Coaching Session.
