  7. The Eleven principles of leadership FUHS ASB 2011-2012

  8. Know yourself and seek self-improvement • In order to know yourself, you have to understand your be, know, and do, attributes. • Seeking self-improvement means continually strengthening your attributes. This can be accomplished through self-study, formal classes, reflection, and interacting with others.

  9. Be technically proficient • As a leader, you must know your job and have a solid familiarity with your peers’ or subordinates’ tasks. • Just because you’re not “doing” it, doesn’t mean you’re not involved. If one person fails in a task, we ALL failed in that task.

  10. Seek responsibility and take responsibility for your actions • Search for ways to guide your organization to new heights. And when things go wrong, they always do sooner or later — do not blame others. Always point the finger at yourself before others. • Analyze the situation, take corrective action, and move on to the next challenge.

  11. Make sound and timely decisions • Use good problem solving, decision making, and planning tools. • Do not make decisions without thought and deliberation • Consult others • Make lists to weigh options

  12. Set the example • Be a good role model for your peers. • They must not only hear what they are expected to do, but also see it. We must become the change we want to see - Mahatma Gandhi

  13. Know your people and look out for their well-being • Know human nature and the importance of sincerely caring for your peers. • ACTUALLY care. Don’t fake concern, but instead actually be kind and show a caring and compassionate attitude. • Think about what will be best for the WHOLE student body

  14. Keep your peers informed • Know how to communicate with not only them, but also ME, and other key people (ADMIN). • Horizontal communication is key • Utilize as many different communicative tools as possible. • This is not one person’s job, but everyone’s…it is also YOUR responsibility to keep yourself informed.

  15. Develop a sense of responsibility in your peers • Help to develop good character traits that will help them carry out their professional responsibilities. • Promote responsibility, accountability, and reliability through your actions and through requiring these traits.

  16. Ensure that tasks are understood, supervised, and accomplished • Communication is the key to this responsibility. • Don’t micro-manage, but also make sure you follow-up and check on progress. This ensures that people feel supported, but also sense the accountability necessary to complete tasks. • Give positive feedback for completion of tasks…this should be celebrated!

  17. Train as a team • Although many call their organization a team, they are not really teams...they are just a group of people doing their jobs. • WE need to ACTUALLY be a team. • This means we work together, not individually. When someone asks for help, GIVE IT! Or better yet, ask them if they need help! • All individuals are leaders and followers • We are only as strong as our weakest link—so let’s not have ANY weak links!

  18. Use the full capabilities of your organization • By developing a team spirit, you will be able to employ your organization, department, section, etc. to its fullest capabilities. • Acknowledge all team members as valuable and necessary. • We are all equals on the team, regardless of grade or position—in acting this way, we will get more done and have a much better atmosphere.
