I don’t want to pass up the opportunity to share an article I read about how To Be An Effective Business Leader and Hacks. Here are a few highlights:

Today's world is a rough-and-tumble place. When people talk about leadership in the business world, they are often focused on the business leader and their accomplishments, what they offer, etc. Wouldn't it be great if this was you? Here are half a dosen hacks to be a more effective business leader in today’s world.

1. Do your research.

When it comes to being a great leader, it’s important that you do your research first. Start by following industry leaders on social media. Following experts in your field will not only broaden your perspective of your industry but also enhance your understanding of other business leaders' thought processes and how they operate on a daily basis.

2. Get out and gain visibility.

During your research, become aware of various industry events that are happening in your field. Going to events such as expos, summits and virtual conferences are great opportunities to meet successful leaders and hear them speak about their experiences firsthand. You can also get connected to peers and leaders in your industry, which could open doors for new partnerships and prospects. It is of utmost importance that you not only attend these events but really put yourself out there and make the most of your experience. Try to gain visibility by connecting with speakers, volunteering to facilitate a session.

3. Find mentors and form your board of advisors.

There are a few things to keep in mind when forming your board of advisors. First, you want to ensure that you have a mix of people from a wide variety of backgrounds and expertise. This will give you a well-rounded group of people who can offer advice and perspectives on various issues. Moreover, diversity matters, as it brings unique experiences and approaches to the table, which will only improve the quality of advice you receive. So, pick people who will challenge you to interpret and tackle problems differently than you usually would.

4. Learn from your peers.

When you look within your organisation, you don’t only have to look at top leadership, as a lot of learning can also come from paying attention to your peers. It is crucial that you take an interest in what your peers are doing so that you can learn from their wins and losses. Reach out to them for advice and get their take on projects you are working on. Pay it back: Share your knowledge and expertise with them. The best leaders are constantly learning and growing. They know there is always room for improvement and are consistently looking for ways to enhance their skills. When you are open to feedback, constructive ideas and experimentation, you will be set up for success in the business world.
