47. Inspire a Shared Vision Envision the future by imagining exciting and inspiring possibilities A great Leader inspires excited and motivated people to reach for goals which they may not have even dared to dream about on their own.
48. Inspire a Shared Vision Envision the future by imagining exciting and inspiring possibilities Leaders passionately believe that they can make a difference. They have a desire to make something happen, to change the way things are, to create something that’s never existed before.
49. Inspire a Shared Vision Envision the future by imagining exciting and inspiring possibilities Leaders envision the future. A vision is a mental picture of what tomorrow will be like. It expresses our highest standards and values. It sets us apart and makes us feel special. It spans years of time and keeps us focused on the future. And, it must appeal to all who have a stake in it.
50. Inspire a Shared Vision Enlist support of others in a common vision by appealing to shared aspirations However, having a vision of the future isn’t enough. Others must be able to see themselves in that future.
51. Enlist support of others in a common vision by appealing to shared aspirations Leaders know what motivates their constituents. They forge a unity of purpose by showing constituents how the vision can meet their needs and serve the common good.
52. Enlist support of others in a common vision by appealing to shared aspirations Leaders are personally convinced of the value of the vision and share it with genuine passion and conviction. Enthusiasm is catching. It uplifts people’s spirits.

55. Challenge the Process Search for opportunities by seeking innovative ways to change, grow and improve Exemplary leaders are proactive – they seize the initiative.
56. Challenge the Process Search for opportunities by seeking innovative ways to change, grow and improve Leadership and innovation are nearly synonymous.
57. Challenge the Process Search for opportunities by seeking innovative ways to change, grow and improve Leaders know that people will not change unless they can see how a new policy, process, or program fits with their personal needs. Leaders find ways to make the work of change intrinsically motivating to their constituents.
58. Challenge the Process Search for opportunities by seeking innovative ways to change, grow and improve Because new and innovative ideas often originate outside the organization – they come from customers, research labs, or other outside sources – leaders use their “outsight” – their ability to perceive external realities – to constantly survey the landscape of technology, politics, economics, demographics, art, religion, and society.
59. Challenge the Process Search for opportunities by seeking innovative ways to change, grow and improve Leaders are open to receiving ideas from anyone and anywhere.
60. Challenge the Process Search for opportunities by seeking innovative ways to change, grow and improve “Try harder” is a sure-fire way to get nowhere when people are doing their best under a prevailing paradigm.

61. Challenge the Process Search for opportunities by seeking innovative ways to change, grow and improve Allow people to think in different ways to improve performance, and then unleash them and see what happens.
62. Challenge the Process Search for opportunities by seeking innovative ways to change, grow and improve Look for areas that need improvement, tell people what you want done and why, and then guide them.
63.

People will amaze you with their ingenuity, and when they succeed, even partially, praise them in public.
64. Challenge the Process Experiment and take risks by constantly generating small wins and learning from mistakes A leader who promotes creativity and change must have the maturity to accept that not all will turn out well. There is no better way to bring improvement to a halt than to punish someone when honest innovation goes awry. Innovation rarely comes from a unit led by a screamer.
65. Challenge the Process Experiment and take risks by constantly generating small wins and learning from mistakes Humility and courage are complementary qualities and admitting mistakes takes courage. Few people have earned respect who have not admitted mistakes, accepted feedback, or listened to others.
66. Challenge the Process Experiment and take risks by constantly generating small wins and learning from mistakes Leaders must allow mistakes to teach and learn. They must never allow failure.
67. Challenge the Process Experiment and take risks by constantly generating small wins and learning from mistakes Real leaders promote the idea that disagreement does not equal disrespect. The best leaders revel in disagreement because they know that independent thinking is the only way to discover the best solutions to problems.
68. Challenge the Process Experiment and take risks by constantly generating small wins and learning from mistakes Independent thinking cannot occur in an environment that demands blind obedience. The magic of exchanging ideas is getting to know what and how other people think. Having faith and confidence in each other’s performance in uncertain and ambiguous situations is the key to initiative.
69. In Summary Seek innovative ways to change, grow and improve Experiment and take risks by constantly generating small wins and learning from mistakes Challenge the Process
70. Empower Others to Act Foster collaboration by promoting cooperative goals and building trust “You can’t do it alone” is the mantra of exemplary leaders. You simply can’t get extraordinary things done by yourself.
71. Empower Others to Act Foster collaboration by promoting cooperative goals and building trust Collaboration is the master skill that enables teams, partnerships, and other alliances to function effectively. Leaders foster collaboration by promoting cooperative goals and building trust.

75. Empower Others to Act Strengthen others by sharing power and discretion It’s essentially the process of turning constituents into leaders themselves – making people capable of acting on their own initiative.
76. Empower Others to Act Strengthen others by sharing power and discretion People must have the latitude to make their own decisions. They must work in an environment that both builds their ability to perform a task and promotes a sense of self-confidence. They must experience a sense of personal accountability so that they can feel ownership for their achievements.
77. Define clear roles and responsibilities Clear expectations produce good results. People generally want to do well. When leaders make expectations clear, people tend to rise to the occasion to meet them. Empower Others to Act
78. Empower Others to Act Define clear roles and responsibilities When you analyze why an individual or unit failed to accomplish what you wanted, the reason is often unclear expectations and poor guidance.

81. Empower Others to Act Define clear roles and responsibilities How much guidance you give depends on the amount of trust and confidence you have in one another.
82. Empower Others to Act Define clear roles and responsibilities Knowing what to do is knowing the letter of the law; knowing why you do it is knowing its spirit. Making the “what and why” clear enables subordinates to take meaningful initiative, and they might even succeed beyond expectations.
83. Empower Others to Act Define clear roles and responsibilities Enforcing standards and accountabilities demonstrates that what we say is important and what we do is consistent. Making policies that we do not enforce sends the message that standards are not important.
84. Empower Others to Act Define clear roles and responsibilities If discipline means doing what is right, then education is the critical component of discipline. Education helps promote ownership of standards. People will be far more willing to meet standards when they understand their importance and do not regard them as mere harassment.
85. Leave a Legacy Great leaders leave a legacy of excellence for their unit by creating compellingly effective systems and leaving the systems in place when they, themselves, leave. Empower Others to Act
86. Empower Others to Act Leave a Legacy The test of the systems’ excellence comes when a leader’s successor arrives. If the successor understands the logic and the effectiveness of the systems the previous leader has put in place and keeps those systems in place, the previous leader will have succeeded.
87. Empower Others to Act Leave a Legacy Viable systems sustain predictability and balance, and because the best systems do not depend on a leader’s personality, units do not need to reinvent the wheel after every transition. A unit with sound systems in place can sustain excellence over a long period.
88. In Summary Foster collaboration by promoting cooperative goals and building trust Strengthen others by sharing power and discretion Define clear roles and responsibilities Leave a Legacy Empower Others to Act

The road to excellence is not smooth; it is bumpy and full of high adventure; it is fun, painful, daunting, exciting, and rewarding.
96. Encourage the Heart Celebrate the values and victories by creating a spirit of community When a project falters, praise the individual publicly for having the guts to try something new. Look for the golden nuggets in the effort that the unit can use, and take the time to see if the effort can be directed onto another area. Chances are you will see plenty of ways to use the innovations and ideas embedded in the project.
97. Show You Care Caring comes in myriad forms, including providing high-quality training, good tools and equipment, and a good quality of life for subordinates and their families. Encourage the Heart
98. Encourage the Heart Show You Care Leaders demonstrate that they care about people as individuals rather than as personnel or “human resources”.
99. Encourage the Heart Show You Care Great leaders do not need to read from a three-by-five card to discuss subordinates’ accomplishments at a promotion, award, or farewell.

105. Encourage the Heart Treat People With Respect Treating people with respect requires us to tell them when they fail to meet our standards. Not correcting a mistake or deficiency sends a subtle message that the individual is not worth our time because s/he is either incapable of meeting standards or not important enough to be bothered with.
