Being a leader in the desired field (work, school, society, sport, politics, various associations) is a difficult position to reach and maintain for long periods, but at the same time rewarding.

If you are just starting to climb the leadership ladder , or are already at the top, knowing and then trying to develop the core qualities of an effective leader should be an integral part of your path to success .

Knowing leadership only in theory and actually guiding people are two distinct things.

John Maxwell has spoken, written and taught a lot about leadership, but unlike others, he has practiced a lot, being a strong leader of churches and religious organizations.

Who better than him could summarize the indispensable qualities of the leader.

In this article you will discover one by one the essential qualities to be a great and effective leader.

For each of them I will show you an in-depth article, in which I expressed my personal interpretation.

I recommend John Maxwell’s resource indicated at the bottom of this article.

It may seem strange to you, but as you discover the qualities of an effective leader, you will find that some qualities are natural to you or almost innate, while in others you are a little weak.

Do you know a way to improve leadership and increase it exponentially?

Today I link to the Law of the Lid, which I mentioned in one earlier.

This law states that the effectiveness of your leadership is undermined and limited precisely by your inability to lift your lids!

One of the worst covers you could have is the inability to empower others and help them develop, so that you become so valuable in the organization that you become indispensable.

The opposite situation, which violates the law of empowerment, is when the leader weakens his team members and creates barriers that the people in the team cannot overcome.

If you fail to empower others, then you are becoming a lid for your team or organization and will fail to improve leadership.

If you don’t remove the lid, people will either give up and become passive, or else they will go elsewhere, where they can increase their potential.

Why do some leaders violate the Law of Empowerment?

Here is a list of possible reasons:

• d desire for safety at work
• a weak leader fears that by helping his subordinates, he will become replaceable;
• r existence to change
• change is the price of progress and many leaders as they age do not accept it so willingly;
• lost the value of s is

many people acquire their personal worth and self-esteem from their job or position; if either of them is threatened, their self-esteem is consequently also threatened.

If you are a confident leader, you don’t care about your position or what others think to feel valued, but you strongly believe in yourself, in your mission and in your people.
