Listen Later

I don’t claim to be a leadership guru, but I’ve had a lot of experience working with senior leaders, studying leadership, running three fast-growing companies, and leading at big companies. Here are my ten principles, and they apply to you – regardless of your level, tenure, or role.

  1. Believe in the power of every individual
  2. Build a “we vs. I” mentality, focus on people helping each other
  3. Embrace humility, listen to others
  4. Create energy: inspire the team
  5. Make decisions consistently, find a framework and use it
  6. Understand all the stakeholders involved
  7. Respect and honor technology
  8. Love and study people
  9. Think like an economist
