O'Connor Marketing You Know You're A Successful Leader When You Don't Tolerate These 12 Things

    SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA, April 12, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Leadership is a process of social influence, which maximises the efforts of others, towards a specific goal. A leader is someone who brings people together and guides them towards a common goal. Leadership skills and styles may vary, but effective leadership requires much more than the ability to assign tasks to a group.

There are many different ideas as to what makes a great leader. Research published in the Harvard Business Review 2000 by author and psychologist Daniel Goleman uncovered six different leadership styles: commanding, visionary, affiliative, democratic, pace-setting and coaching. There are many differing schools of thought when it comes to what classes effective leadership, but it is apparent that there is no single definition of leadership and what works for one leader, may not work for another; depending on personality type and circumstances. However, most business professionals will agree that a leader must be able to inspire their team.

In a recent article on Huffington Post (17 March 2015) several traits were listed, that successful leaders should not tolerate. O'Connor Marketing highlights these traits below.

- Dishonesty - this will impose a false reality on life and those around you
- Boredom - successful people will always be exploring new things
- Mediocrity - what makes some people stand out is their willingness to make the hard choices that allow a life of greatness
- Negativity - every negative thought keeps you from being your best
- Toxicity - if it doesn't feel right, cut your losses
- Disorganisation - clutter and disorganisation create stress
- Unhealthy anything - people deserve better than unhealthy habits
- Regrets - you can't move forward if you dwell on the past
- Disrespect - relationships are at the heart of success, and respect is at the heart of a good relationship
- Distrust - focus on building your own integrity
- Anger - holding onto anger will result in accomplishing nothing
