LOOKING FOR LEADERS - ONE

Yes we could make the best engineer the next manager/leader however what do we get… DOUBLE TROUBLE… WHY? … We lose our best engineer and often get a lousy manager! SO WHO DO WE LOOK FOR?

- those who regularly tell others what they are doing and the results they have achieved on behalf of the company. Yeah I know they can be seen as braggers but better this sort, than the ones who are mumbling about the problems at home or type of boat they are thinking of buying

- those that seem to be able get their workmates to help out when things need to get done, the characters that say ‘hey lets all come in on Saturday finish this off and we can go to the pub for lunch together after’

- those who are willing to be in the spotlight… you know… the types that volunteer to plan a company event or activity or that will give presentations to other employees

- those with a good network, they know ‘everybody,’ the sort of person you instinctively go to, to ask… do you know anyone that can get me a left handed widget for my ‘whats-it-thingo’

- those that finish tasks on time without sacrificing quality or wasting resources

LOOK OUT OF YOUR OFFICE DOOR THERE MUST BE SOMEONE OUT THERE LIKE THAT… NO… OOPS

ps: I these are your attributes and your company wont promote you to leader perhaps its time to fill out your resme... there is free resume help at www.orglearn.org
