How to be a Good Leader?




Not everyone can be a leader, because there are differences between a leader and a boss. Acting “Like a Boss” may not be the best way to get respect from your employees or staffs. A strong leader aim to shift workplace culture. 

Team members must know the’re going somewhere. A strong leader assigns tasks that show a clear vision for the future, and provides team members the necessary assurance they’re actually working toward something.

Team members aren’t pushed, they’re led. Confidence and faith in a leader has the potential to boost morale, and provide employees with the motivation to contribute to company or team culture.

Leaders invest back into the team. By keeping the team’s best interests in mind, a positive and powerful future can more easily be secured.

According to Researchers David Bowers and Stanley Seashore, there are Four Factor Theory of Leadership, as follow :
  1. Providing Personal Support – Helping people value themselves and their work, so that they can develop a sense of self-worth.
  2. Encouraging Teamwork ("Interaction Facilitation") – Encouraging people to establish close, collaborative, successful working relationships with one another.
  3. Focusing on Goals ("Goal Emphasis") – Inspiring people to feel enthusiastic about and committed to shared goals, and motivating them to want to perform well.
  4. Helping People Work Effectively ("Work Facilitation") – Helping people meet goals by supporting them, and by providing resources, materials, or knowledge.

As a leader, you have to :
  • show your people that you value the work they do. 
  • say "thank you" when people have done a job well. 


There are plenty of ways to motivate your team without bonuses. All of this will inspire the entire team to work toward a common goal. And you have to work hard with your teamwork to be success. Because, remember the quote “There is no elevator to become success, you have to take the stairs”.
