Which way is your leadership stock trending?<\/p>\n

In a recent post<\/a> I noted an important, sobering truth:<\/p>\n

The influence of your leadership, like the value of a publicly traded stock, is either going up, <\/strong>or it\u2019s going down.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are no flat lines when it comes to your leadership stock.<\/strong><\/p>\n

When your stock is rising you are able to cast stronger visions, create more effective strategies, create healthier cultures and build more cohesive teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In that post I noted that when your stock is falling, every aspect of leadership becomes much harder. I then went on to note 10 reasons your leadership stock could be falling.<\/p>\n

But perhaps your trend is going up and to the right. Perhaps you are sensing the wind is at your leadership back these days; your vision casting is connecting, your strategies are being embraced and your execution is producing great results.<\/p>\n

If that\u2019s happening, chances are you are leveraging these 10 reasons your leadership stock could be on the rise:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    You model personal development; people can see you making the effort to grow your leadership.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n
  2. \n

    You take the high-road in every situation.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n
  3. \n

    You take an intense, genuine interest in the personal lives of your teammates.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n
  4. \n

    You take care of yourself physically, relationally and emotionally; you are giving yourself personal margin.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n
  5. \n

    You model accountability; people can see that you are not \u2018above the rules\u2019.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n
  6. \n

    You seek input from everyone, regardless of position or title.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n
  7. \n

    You are a \u201cthanking machine\u201d; gratitude oozes from you.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n
  8. \n

    You exude optimism, tempered with realism.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n
  9. \n

    You are winsome and approachable.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n
  10. \n

    You are becoming more passionate about what you lead; and your passion is infectious.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    As I noted in the earlier post<\/a>,<\/p>\n

    A leader\u2019s stock is affected by numerous subtle practices and habits. Leaders must carry enough self-awareness to recognize these habits and know how they are affecting their stock.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    So take the time to do a self-analysis of the direction of your own leadership stock. And embrace the qualities that will contribute to a rising stock.<\/p>\n

    Because when your stock is rising, your leadership can be unstoppable.<\/p>\n
