To Lead Well, Be Human
by Mark McCatty, Mark McCatty, Inc. Leadership Results Through People

Harvard Business Review recently published an article on leadership. The title is Why Do So Many Managers Forget They're Human. It's a good read.

The point of the article is that there's unrest in many workplaces. One particularly interesting statistic published by Forbes found that 65% of employees would forego a pay raise if it meant

seeing their boss fired. Managers complain that their emplyees lack motivation. I think this research indicates the opposite. Employees are so motivated to see their bosses replaced that they would essentially pay to replace them. 

John Maxwell describes the 5 Levels of leadership. The higher levels of effective leadership are found in those leaders that realize the importance of connecting with their team, and in building relationships. Being personal, being self-aware, being selfless, and having compassion for others is a good list of behaviors that leaders can choice to display.

Taking care of the people in your care is good advice. Here's the link to the HBR article:
