4 Ways to Positively Influence Your Team

4 Ways to Positively Influence Your Team

The world's greatest leaders are those with the greatest influence.

?

Personally, I would define that as the ability to bring out the best in others, getting them to follow your lead, all while making them feel greatly valued.

?

Now, you aren’t the same type of influencer as those you work above, under, or around, but you can always learn from other's abilities.

?

Let’s look at 4 different ways leaders influence their teams and how you can implement each one into your leadership approach:

?

1. The Supporter

The supportive leader is the one who always has your back and is willing to help you succeed however they can. Most likely a soft-hearted person who is highly passionate about helping others reach their potential.

?

2. The Teacher

The teacher doesn’t like to leave people guessing. They are clear in their direction and instruction so their team is best equipped to succeed.

?

3. The Motivator

The motivating leader puts others in a position to be successful by looking for things others don’t see in themselves. Motivators are willing to push people past their comfort zones.

?

4. The Role Model

The role model is NOT the “do as I say, not as I do” leader. The role model sets the standard and lives the standard to represent a clear expectation of excellence for their people.

?

Which one are you?

?

Most likely, you favor one more than the other 3, but if you want to grow your influence, you should strive to be excellent in all 4.

?

Chances are, the people you lead don’t all respond best to one way of communication.

?

The best leaders, the ones with the greatest influence, are situational. They know their people, their personalities, and their learning style, and lead in a way that will influence the quickest, most effective response.

?

Consider these 4 approaches, and brainstorm some ways you can begin to implement them into your leadership!

On this week’s episode of the Lead Up Podcast, special guest Glenn Parker and I further discuss these 4 approaches and how leaders can use each one to grow their positive influence!
