I asked a young woman I know to answer the questions that describe her Leadership Point of View. She is new to formal leadership but is a natural leader.
What are your beliefs about leading and motivating people?
"Establish trust based on mutual agreement that you will all be willing to do what is best for the organization as a whole. Open, safe dialogue. Hold one another accountable to the standards that have been established by the group."
What kind of leader can your people expect you to be?
"One that they can count on...what motivates me is the looks on the faces of the group and I know that they are counting on me. It is then that I am able to do things that are outside of my leader comfort zone. One that they can approach...one that will be honest...one that will make mistakes."
What do you expect of your people?
"Commitment. Quality. Self-sacrifice. Keep it real."
How will you set an example to your people?
"By sticking to the vision of the team, listening along the way for grumbles and little things that need addressed or celebrated. I will openly discuss even the hint of an issue that I feel could multiply. I will stay on task. I will not gossip about anyone on the team. I will hold others accountable and expect to be held accountable. I will keep it real."
