Do you and your team possess the combination of characteristics associated with perception and leadership that are most often recognized as precursors for success? Qualities associated with perception include paying attention to the details of your appearance, practicing strong professional communication techniques, and having a professional bearing. Those most defined as leadership traits include qualities that signal authority, credibility, and trustworthiness.
Talent alone is not enough in today’s rapidly changing economy. You are also judged on your ability to create new processes that improve your business and industry, as well as coming up with new products and services that address client or consumer needs. If you fall short on these qualities and behaviors, then you are at a competitive disadvantage in the marketplace. In today’s business world, creating greater efficiencies is often the key to improving business and the company.
