http://lukaszpaluch.com Why Leaders Fail?

http://lukaszpaluch.com 1. INABILITY TO ORGANIZE DETAILS

http://lukaszpaluch.com Efficient leadership calls for ability to organize and to master details. No genuine leader is ever “too busy” to do anything which may be required of him in his capacity as leader. When a man, whether he is a leader or follower, admits that he is “too busy” to change his plans, or to give attention to any emergency, he admits his inefficiency.

http://lukaszpaluch.com Truly great leaders are willing, when occasion demands, to perform any sort of labor which they would ask another to perform. “The greatest among ye shall be the servant of all” is a truth which all able leaders observe and respect.

http://lukaszpaluch.com 3. EXPECTATION OF PAY FOR WHAT THEY “KNOW” INSTEAD OF WHAT THEY DO WITH THAT WHICH THEY KNOW

http://lukaszpaluch.com The world does not pay men for that which they “know.” It pays them for what they DO, or induce others to do

http://lukaszpaluch.com 4. FEAR OF COMPETITION FROM FOLLOWERS

http://lukaszpaluch.com The leader who fears that one of his followers may take his position is practically sure to realize that fear sooner or later. The able leader trains understudies to whom he may delegate, at will, any of the details of his position.

http://lukaszpaluch.com 5. LACK OF IMAGINATION

http://lukaszpaluch.com Without imagination, the leader is incapable of meeting emergencies, and of creating plans by which to guide his followers efficiently.

http://lukaszpaluch.com 6. SELFISHNESS

http://lukaszpaluch.com The leader who claims all the honor for the work of his followers, is sure to be met by resentment. The really great leader CLAIMS NONE OF THE HONORS.

http://lukaszpaluch.com 7. INTEMPERANCE

http://lukaszpaluch.com Followers do not respect an intemperate leader. Moreover, intemperance in any of its various forms, destroys the endurance and the vitality of all who indulge in it.

http://lukaszpaluch.com 8. DISLOYALTY

http://lukaszpaluch.com Perhaps this should have come at the head of the list. The leader who is not loyal to his trust, and to his associates, those above him, and those below him, cannot long maintain his leadership.

http://lukaszpaluch.com 9. EMPHASIS OF THE “AUTHORITY” OF LEADERSHIP

http://lukaszpaluch.com The efficient leader leads by encouraging, and not by trying to instil fear in the hearts of his followers. The leader who tries to impress his followers with his “authority” comes within the category of leadership through FORCE.

http://lukaszpaluch.com 10. EMPHASIS OF TITLE

http://lukaszpaluch.com The competent leader requires no “title” to give him the respect of his followers. The man who makes too much over his title generally has little else to emphasize.
