“Clear Rejection is better than Fake Promise”

–Quazi Salahuddin Mahmud

All career paths come with pros and cons, everyone knows that. But when anyone know anyone know what matters most to themselves, they can be sure that they are choosing the right career path. Guiding principles help anyone to stay focused on what’s important and keep in alignment with our values even when the herd is pushing a different way. In My5, we would successful like to share someone what principles a successful someone follow.

Accountability to work

Accountability is the main element in leadership. Accountability builds up trust, improves performance, promotes ownership, and inspires confidence. Leaders should be able to take responsibility for their team’s work, as well as their own. This may involve apologizing for mistakes and developing new systems and processes to avoid errors in the future. It is all about being reliable and having clear standards. I strictly maintain accountability of my work and feel it is the key to my success.

Flexibility

Flexibility helps me to adapt to a leadership style and serve the team. It can adjust and maintain ownership of the team, project or meeting as needed. Flexibility can revise their plans to incorporate new innovations and overcome challenges, while still achieving their goals. Flexibility is not only about surviving and thriving in new situations. Finally, having strength in some skills will help a leader to be flexible in their own behaviors, while also encouraging followers to be more flexible and open to change.

Eagerness for learning

Leaders have to be effective, inspirational and knowledgeable of trends and the topics to lead. Eagerness helps leaders to improve skills and contribute to the purposes, it also helps to inspire the team to continue learning. I commit to continuing the team education and taking part in professional development opportunities, it motivates my team to invest in their own learning.

Realistic & practical

Optimistic leaders show they believe their company is working toward a better future. I value team members to contribute to achieve the goal, always make plans ahead and maintain a positive outlook through changes and transitions. Being positive during stressful or adverse situations can help me to manage difficulties effectively and build great leadership.

 

Innovative & Problem solving

A leader’s ability to navigate challenges and make informed choices can determine the success of an organization, team, or project. Good leaders also make training a priority for their employees, allowing them to develop skills to do their work and minimize the potential for problems. Being able to identify problems and use critical thinking skills to resolve them is an important leadership quality. My willingness to consider a different concept or approach helps to build the team and makes us successful.
