Laws of Positive Leadership
This is the other part of my previous post, also taken from TI website.
How to be a leader others want to follow.
Examples abound of poor leadership. Who hasn’t had a teacher or boss who invoked feelings of disrespect? A positive leader is someone who inspires, motivates, energizes and unites, while generating loyalty and producing results. In his article for the Toastmaster magazine, Victor Parachin offers 10 rules on how to be that kind of leader:
* Give more than you expect others to give.
* Combine optimism and perseverance.
* See everyone as a diamond in the rough.
* Express appreciation; accept responsibility.
* Keep your ego in check.
* Show respect for the people around you.
* Treat team members as family.
* Be a source of inspiration.
* Stress cooperation, not competition.
* Maintain a sense of humor.
P.S. If you want the complete PDF file, please make a comment andleave your email address.

The Seven Secrets of Inspiring Leaders
Here's an article from the Toastmasters Magazine which i find relevant to share to those who are leaders in their own way. Below is Leadership secrets 1 to 4.
1. Demonstrate enthusiasm constantly
- Inspiring leaders have an abundance of passion of what they do. You cannot inspire unless you’re inspired yourself. Passion can’t be taught. You either have passion in your message or you don’t.
2. Articulate a compelling reason to take action.
- Inspiring leaders craft and deliver a specific, consistent and memorable vision. Just like the vision of Bill Gates – putting a computer in every desk in every home.
3. Sell the benefit
- Remember, it’s not about you, it’s about them. The first thing to answer or satisfy when listeners are asking themselves “What’s in it for me?”
4. Tell More stories
- Inspiring leaders tell memorable stories. Stories connect with people on the emotional level. You cannot underestimate the power of stories.
