If you own or run a business you have two choices. You could search for leaders in the marketplace and try to convince them to join your team. Alternatively, you can build leaders from within your organization. When you do the latter, you have the potential to create enthusiasm within your team. You are creating a culture of growth and energy. (It is actually cheaper for your company and more rewarding to you if you do this, by the way.)

In this episode, I’m going to cover the seven best ways to build your next generation of leaders. If you are interested in building leaders from within, these tips can really help.

How to Influence People in a Positive Way and Help Your Team Grow.

Before I get to the seven best ways to build your team, let’s start with why these skills work. Although every human being is different, most of us want specific things from our leaders. For instance…

• People will do things for and follow people who they know, like, and respect.
• Every person wants to feel important.
• Leaders who make those people around them feel important build confidence in those people.
• Confident people who feel that their job is important tend to trust and respect those leaders.

Many people think that leaders have to tear people down and build them back up. This is a huge mistake. For some reason, we believe that the way to get people to be productive is to kick them in the pants. Typically, that will get you the opposite effect. Your team may comply out of fear, but they will not grow in confidence. As a result, you will have to order them to do every little thing for it to get done.
