Six Emotional Leadership Styles - Leadership Training From MindTools Choosing the Right Style for the Situation Find out how emotional leadership styles can affect your team's happiness. © iStockphoto/Kuklev Imagine that you work with a positive, charismatic leader. She's excited about the future of the organization, and she shares this excitement with her team. She makes sure that people understand how their efforts contribute to this future, and this inclusion sparks loyalty and intense effort in the team. Generally, morale and job satisfaction are high, because team members feel that they're making a difference. However, some people in her team don't respond well to this style of leadership. She could be more effective by varying her approach to leadership, depending on the situation; and she could do this by using "six emotional leadership styles," each of which is useful in different circumstances.

The 10 O’Clock Rule This is a nifty one, simple to implement and, in my experience, surprisingly effective. Set your watch to beep every night at 10 o’clock. When your watch goes off, get up that instant and prepare for morning. Whether you’re in the middle of watching a DVD, rushing to meet a work deadline, reading that one last blog entry, etc., get up and get rolling. Your Morning Prep Checklist In addition to brushing up, walking the dog, and otherwise getting ready for bed as usual, do as many morning tasks as you can ahead of time: Plan breakfast and make sure the fridge is stocked (if necessary, run out to the grocery store to stock up on milk, eggs, etc.) Once you’ve figured out which tasks can be done, write them down on an index card and keep it handy. Organize Your Space I inherited a lovely little stand for hanging out your outfit, wallet, and keys for the next day from my grandfather. This 10 o’clock routine might take anywhere between 30 minutes and an hour. Reap the Benefits Photo by jmv.

Read More – Knowledge is Power! (Proverbs 3:13-14) | Jenny Fisher │Equipping Women for Life Francis Bacon is credited with having coined “Knowledge is Power” in 1597. The power Bacon was referring to was to be in control of nature, however, it is apparent that over the centuries the phrase has come to have a different meaning which is that knowledge can give power to the one who has the knowledge. Martin Luther King, Jr. quoted “Science investigates, religion interprets. As a woman in the real estate corporate world, I understood that specific knowledge in the field, degrees, certifications and a long list of letters after my name would provide not only credibility but grant me privilege and elevated status within my profession. Throughout history every great man and woman of God had a common denominator and that was that they too had disciplined themselves to fix God’s Word in their hearts and minds, they also tied them as symbols on their foreheads, taught their children throughout the day and in all they did together. In His Service, Pastor Jenny

Do you really need more time? The single biggest “push back” I get from people when I share about how building practices into their life can unleash new ideas and help them be more productive goes something like this: “Yeah, that’s great, but I really just don’t have the time.” After collecting myself, I reply…Did you at any point in the last week: Watch TV? Read for pleasure? The inevitable response: “yes“. “OK,” I reply, “then you didn’t mean to say you ‘don’t have time.’ Stares. Each of us has 168 hours in a week. 48. 4 hours per day every single day for family activity? 5 hours per week for hanging out with friends? You can still watch TV, read and do other things if you’d like. The point is this: you have time to do things that matter, that create value and that help you get where you want to be in your life and career. We need to overcome the fear of the unknown and simply get moving on what matters.

How to Start Freelancing With No Experience The freelancing industry enjoyed impressive growth in the past several years. In 2011, the Financial Times (UK) reported a 12% growth in the number of freelancers from 2008. Popular freelance broker site Elance enjoyed consistent growth in past years, with the number of jobs posted rising from around 200,000 in the first quarter of 2012 to 300,000 in the same period in 2013. In addition to a more flexible work schedule, freelancers tend to be happy. According to the 2012 Freelance Industry Report, 90% of freelancers are happier now than they were before going solo, and nearly half felt no impact from the economic downturn.
