In the Army, character is fundamental. Leaders are those who have the competence to guide subordinates, the integrity to stand by their decisions, and the interpersonal skills to motivate and inspire their team to victory.The higher up in the organization a leader is, the more honed his leadership qualities must be. Those serving as managers and executives in a company must have the core values of a soldier – Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless service, Honor, Integrity, and Personal courage – LDRSHIP.They're fairly self-explanatory, but unfortunately, only a fraction of business owners apply these concepts to the training of their staff. What would it mean to your organization if all your leaders operated with these values?Leaders in the business world must do the same things military commanders do – communicate clearly, make decisions, and motivate others. They devise plans and prepare their staff for the carrying out of those plans.When it comes time to execute the strategy, a leader can effectively assess the project or mission's rate of success – changing course when necessary while maintaining the respect of those working for them.There are not different qualities for different levels of leadership. In fact, each and every one of your company's employees should possess the same leadership traits. Each leader – depending on their position within the company, will put their leadership qualities to use in different ways.Some may be responsible for the behind-the-scenes tactical strategy of edging out the competition, while others are tapped to provide the direct enthusiasm and incentives that give employees purpose and lead improvements within the organization.The question remains; what would it mean to your organization if all your leaders operated with these same values? This begs the question; how do you get them to have these values? Join the successful forces!Wesley Ford is the Nation's LDRSHIP Expert!
