The Cornerstone of Successful Leadership

Some level of leadership is often necessary to make any kind of social organization function properly, whether it’s a family, a business, a government, or a charity.

We all step into “leadership” roles every now and then, even if it’s something as small as helping a stranger cross the street or giving a friend advice on how to get a new job.

Leadership is most effective when we match our strengths with other people’s needs. It’s about finding a “common goal” and then working together to achieve it.

So the first question to always ask yourself as a leader is, “What is in my power to help this person become as happy and successful as possible?”
