Top-10 Characteristics of Lousy Leaders
Posted by Matt Postiff October 22, 2014 on Matt Postiff's Blog under GeneralĀ
A pastor friend sent me this list, written by Michael Hyatt. The following summarizes his points:
- They don't have enough confidence to lead at their level.
- They're arrogant, assuming they always know what's best. It takes confidence to lead. It also takes humility.
- They're disorganized.
- Their words and actions erode trust, even with their supporters.
- They over-promise and under-deliver. This one affects more than just politicians.
- They don't articulate a clear vision.
- They don't enroll others in their initiatives.
- They're not transparent. Openness encourages honesty.
- They're blind to what's happening in their own organizations.
- They don't hold people accountable—especially themselves.
