SEVEN STEPS TO BECOME A BETTER LEADER 1. FOLLOW LEADERS WHO YOU LOOK UP TO: There is no better way to learn how to do something than to find someone else who you admire and who does that thing well. There is an endless number of amazing leaders out there, but it comes down to what type of leader you want to be. So while I could share a list of leaders who you might follow, your list is likely going to look different. TAKE ACTION: Pick out 2, 3 or even 4 leaders who you admire – either for their speaking abilities, their expertise in a particular industry or niche, their ability to teach others who can learn from their mistakes – and read their articles, follow their speaking engagements, and check out their presence on social media and within online communities. As you start to follow these leaders, notice how they present themselves, how they teach, and how they communicate. You will soon find that leaders have an effective way of getting out there and being seen and heard, and that is great news for you because it means you can learn from them.
