Plain Text Version	Put Yourself and Your Team On the Road to Real Results © By: Harry Paul How do you inspire people to work harder, reach higher, and achieve more? How do you get them to support you and go above and beyond in everything they do? How do you get them to care? You show that you care about them. Nice Managers Get ResultsSome years back, a group of researchers studied 16,000 corporate managers. The results surprised many skeptics. They showed that the highest achievers were those who valued people as highly as they valued profits. Master Your EmotionsEven the best leaders have personal problems at one time or another. In those situations, the most effective leaders reach down inside themselves to find the strength to keep their emotions in check, especially at work. Listen to Your Inner VoiceWhen you share your dreams and goals with those close to you -- a change of careers, starting a news business, going back to school -- you’re very likely to hear a negative response. Don’t let others rain on your parade -- instead, go for it! Engage With AttitudeHave you ever heard the phrase, "Attitude is everything"? Take it to heart, for there’s no such thing as an effective leader with a bad attitude. The best way to engage people is with your attitude, enthusiasm, and excitement. Caring Energizes EveryoneCaring energizes everyone around you. When you open up and really care about people, you make them feel really good about themselves. This releases the reservoir of positive energy that resides in all of us. The Power of Positive ActionDon’t be nice to people just because you want something from them. Be positive just to be positive, and watch how your life changes for the better. Sincere Appreciation Gets ResultsOne of the deepest needs of our human existence is the need to be appreciated. Each and every one of us absolutely loves to be appreciated for who we are and what we do. Get Others to Go the Extra MileTo really energize those around you, you need to not only take a sincere interest in them and what they do, but also Blow Them Away by doing something incredible and unexpected. Excitement is ContagiousSo is passion. If you’re fired up about what you do, chances are that those around you will be, too! Engage People by Involving EveryoneIn today’s hypercompetitive marketplace, you cannot afford to take anyone for granted or leave anyone on the bench. Consider an informal get-together to discuss a key issue or topic. The key is making sure everyone has a voice in making suggestions on how things can be improved. Leave a Trail of GratitudeWhen people really hit one out of the park for you, or even if they do something simple but well-meaning, find a sincere way to express your appreciation. Give Credit to OthersThe best leaders are confident enough to give credit to others when things go right -- and to take the blame when things go wrong. Don’t Let 10 Seconds Ruin Your DayWhether it is a put-down or a rude driver cutting you off in traffic, do not take it personally. Remember, you are in charge of your emotions! The Roughest Road Leads to the TopThis is because it’s loaded with new challenges and experiences that enable you to learn, grow, and expand your comfort zone. Turn Enemies Into AlliesThe workplace is too small a place for you to have enemies. They can only sidetrack you from important things.
