Introduction
WELCOME to the NINTH Show of Season 5!

AS USUAL, I am really excited for today’s show – Why? Because today I will AGAIN be talking about YOU! Yes, YOU! The Good YOU, The Amazing YOU, the Incredible YOU, and a bit of the BAD YOU!

While many who enter into management and leadership roles want to be genuinely liked by the workers they supervise, seeking popularity for its own sake can be a dead-end path. Many have tried to lead while seeking popularity only to find that, indeed, they are loved but not respected. Becoming a more likeable boss however does not mean you have to sacrifice respect. 

However, being a likeable boss and a respected boss does mean you have to learn to be more effective. This manual helps you take the first steps on what will be a continuous journey towards becoming a more effective boss, the side effects of which are both likeability and respect.

This leads us to today’s theme in How to THINK BIG! - Thinking BIG, and achieving MORE! We are going to look at what makes the Great Leaders, what’s about their self-talk and the vocabulary they should be using.


HOW TO THINK BIG

SEGMENT 1 – It is Better to be Loved or Feared?

This famous question comes down to us from Niccolo Machiavelli, a political theorist who lived in Italy during the Renaissance. 

He contended that a leader who is feared is preferable to a leader who is loved. 

However, he also lived during a time of great political instability where city governments changed in a flash, usually violently, and usually involving executions of the previous leadership. 

Since we no longer live in an age where stepping down from a leadership position or being removed would involve the loss of one’s head, do we really need to adopt the route that proved so disastrous for such ruthless dictators as Saddam Hussein and Augusto Pinochet?

SEGMENT TWO – Leadership As Service!


Whether you prefer an authoritative leadership style, a lenient one, or something in between, one factor that can truly enhance your effectiveness in leadership is to see yourself as serving the needs of your employees even as you serve the needs of your company or organization. 

Often these two sets of needs will coincide. The needs of your employees are the needs of a well-run organization as well. 

When they do contradict, seeing yourself as a kind of servant to your employees can help you to better weigh your priorities in both the long and short terms.

SEGMENT THREE – Leadership by Design

Few people are actually born to leadership. Most people have to learn how to become good leaders. 

One important aspect of good leadership is knowing what you are trying to lead others to. This involves careful consideration beforehand.

Having a plan means that you know what the end result should look like. 

This can apply to your work environment, the culture, or what you expect from your employees. 

By having clear idea of what you want from your employees and what you want from yourself, you put yourself in a better position to plan how to meet your goals.

SEGMENT FOUR – Understanding Motivation


You can’t always get into the head of another person. 

Even if this were possible, understanding what motivates another person can be so complex that even that person is unaware of her or his motivations. 

However, to a certain degree, the essence of leadership is getting others to do what you need them to do, as if it were their original motives themselves. 

While you may not be able to specifically identify another person’s motives, there is a good rule of thumb that was developed by Kenneth Burke called dramatism. 


He that is good with a hammer tends to think everything is a nail. - Abraham Maslow
