How to overcome challenges faced by today’s Leaders? - by Brad Sean

For years, many have observed that challenges faced within leaders are some way common, though there is difference in every scenario. But there is a lot of difference in how they handle their situations? Most of today’s leaders do not try to examine or understand the circumstances better. If they have done an accurate preparation before, then they can stay away from that situation. I know you may arise a question now! “What can I do, if an angry customer is sitting in front of me then which formula may work to end this scenario?” There is no such formula can help you to solve this problem. But there is way to handle this circumstance. If you are the sales person who handled this customer previously, then you are the one responsible for this reason. So try to accept your mistakes and immediately declare and request for apologies. Subsequently attempt to control the situation by involving a superior or other sales person, through that you may properly win his anger.

One of the biggest contribution to the poor management is bad decision, bad hiring policies and partiality ( favoritism between the employees ). These are the main cause of having a character of EGO. Everyone has to run off this bad character which can mess up your entire career. Accordingly make an effort to control your egos then you can win whatever difficult situation. If you do these, almost your internal problems could be answered.

Many scholars said that if you want to feel good then you have to change your attitudes. When you sharpen your positive thoughts ( attitude ), your action looks better then you can get best result. So it is good to change your attitudes.

As a leader, one of your biggest frustration is probably the lack of time to perform all the work required to you. Knowing you need to keep improving yourself for better planning, analyzing, organizing, motivating, inspecting, innovating, developing people, improving leadership qualities, communication along with the most important is to build the team spirit and to create a better understanding in the team through that you can bring best productive in day to day business rather than creating an alien environment with the agreed TIME. Why not, you look serious in your time and properly as a leader identify who is capable enough to finish this work. When you able to recognize or discover which person in your team then split your work to get prompt action. When you give more importance to work to finish in time that would bring success for you.

And I constantly hear from many people that, how do I motivate my employees? I reply them, “You can’t!”. Motivation is an individual responsibility. The genuine challenge for a leader is to create an fearless environment in where co-workers will self motivate themselves for a better performance.

“ Motivation is a fire from within, if someone else tries to light that fire under you, chances are it will burn very briefly” – Stephen R. Covey

It really doesn’t matter what device or which way you adapt a system or a strategy to development of your skills to be a better leader or a business man. If you want to be a best leader, it is vital that you develop the right attitudes and approaches to develop yourself and your surroundings.
