Get Personal
Heard that phrase lately [Other than from watching any of the movies in the Godfather Trilogy]? Yes you have. Maybe even used it yourself once or twice.
Great leaders understand nothing is more personal than leadership, and they engage accordingly. The best leaders understand a failure to engage is in fact a failure to lead. Average leaders remain aloof and distant – great leaders look to know, understand and care for their people.
That realization shows up in many ways. We are often reminded that there is no “I” in team, and that all great achievements come at the hands of people working together. We read company value statements that say something to the effect of, “People are our greatest asset.” That IS a personal approach.

Peak performance is never built on the backs of others; but by helping others become successful. Treat your people as if your career depends on it – after all- business is personal.
