Behavior is the mirror in which everyone shows their image.
—\u00a0Johann Wolfgang von Goethe<\/h2>

Hopefully we all want to continue to hone our leadership skills, abilities and behaviors and be as impactful and influential as possible.

A commitment for continual learning is essential, and re-visiting critical leadership behaviors is always a simple and effective way to stay “sharp”.

We\u2019ve heard most of this before, but it\u2019s good to hear again. Here are the 7 Leadership Behaviors that Gallup has identified as essential competencies required for universal leadership excellence:

1. Build relationships\u00a0\u2013\u00a0We\u2019ve spoken extensively about this.\u00a0“<\/i>Great leaders build genuine connections and trusting relationships with their peers, followers and networks.”<\/i>
<\/i>
2. Develop people\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Again, this is not a new thought.\u00a0“<\/i>Leaders must prioritize ongoing development for every individual in their organization”.<\/i>

3. Lead change\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Understanding and leading through change is a given. “Leaders should model desired behaviors and challenge people to take responsibility for change”.<\/i>
<\/i>
4. Inspire others\u00a0–\u00a0Leadership matters!\u00a0“People thrive in a positive and encouraging environment that conveys purpose, celebrates accomplishments and recognizes each person’s unique importance”<\/i>.

5. Think critically\u00a0–\u00a0This requires awareness and constant learning.\u00a0“Great leaders are in a never-ending pursuit of information . . . establishing the goal, understanding risks . . . and \u00a0devising a comprehensive, multifaceted plan for execution<\/i>“.

6. Communicate clearly\u00a0\u2013\u00a0It\u2019s not just about speaking and listening, it\u2019s also about connections. “Leaders should . . . fuel a culture with streamlined information sharing and informed decision-making<\/i>.\u00a0People need to be listened to and listen themselves — and communication enables meaningful connections”.<\/i>

7. Create accountability –\u00a0<\/b>Leaders hold themselves and others accountable.\u00a0“Leaders should define what employees are accountable for, set and cascade goals, and infuse accountability in employee development”.<\/i>

Chances are none of what was listed was new to you, but simple reminders can help us reinforce the behaviors we want to exhibit. It also helps us identify development opportunities for those wishing to grow their careers. \u00a0

What development opportunities do you have?\u00a0 What about your direct reports?

Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other.
