3. Introduction
• In any walk of life or in any sector, one of the first things a
good leader does is to demonstrate that they fully
understand the skills and expertise needed to carry out the
key responsibilities.
• Good communication should also be at the heart of
everything a good leader does. The very best leaders are the
ones who can describe clearly to their team members
exactly what is expected from them.

4. Habit 1
Be Proactive• Take the initiative. Do not need to wait for things to happen.
Make them happen.
• As applicant write their major accomplishments, Make them
share, where they took the initiative, went the extra mile,
exceeded expectations, and did more than required. Patterns
emerge revealing the types of work the person finds innately
satisfying and motivating.

5. Habit 2
Begin with the End in Mind• Know and define the outcomes before you create the
process.
• When I have a candidate describe a major accomplishment,
I always ask how the person developed the plan, how they
managed against the plan and if they were successful. The
best people always begin any major activity with a thorough
plan giving full consideration to all of the alternatives.

6. Habit 3
Synergize
• These are the team skills: working with, influencing,
coaching and developing people.
• Rather than focusing on personality traits to assess team
skills, it’s better to find out the types of teams the candidate
has been assigned to. Those who can “synergize” are
typically assigned to important cross-functional project
teams far more often than their less “synergistic” peers.
