Sauder, CPA<\/p>\n<p>Leadership is the third\u00a0pillar to doubling business value. Leadership can mean different things to different people, in different situations. For instance, there are global leaders, religious leaders, political leaders, or say community leaders. A business leader, and a business leader\u00a0approach are\u00a0what\u2019s required to double a business value. US President David Dwight Eisenhower said \u201cLeadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done, because he wants to do it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A business leader inspires a vision of the business future, e.g. a local industry leader in automotive repair and service in 3 years. A business leader motivates and manages employees to deliver on the vision. A business leader coaches and builds a team(s) that is effective at achieving the vision. Leadership integrates skills and skillsets to accomplish development of a masterpiece. Leadership compels and convinces the talent you need to join in achieving the business vision. Proverbs say\u2019s where there is no vision, the people perish. A leader\u2019s business vision is not simply accomplished with an objective of doubling business value, it is accomplished with the vision of adding value, so much value and to such an extent, that your business receives a little bit of that value in reciprocation.<\/p>\n<p>Leadership adds value to employees, customers, the community, and beyond. Successful business leadership is admired; from employees and customers, to the community at large; admired and respected because the vision is adding value.<\/p>\n<p>Leadership is ultimately a core value of business value building. A leader will provide employees on the team the access to develop and gain the necessary skills to their job well. Leadership will provide accountability, give and receive feedback, and work towards the long-term success of enterprise. President Eisenhower also said his most important lesson in leadership was attitude begins at the top. A business leader must therefore be capable of peak performance under all types of conditions; and in the most formidable business circumstances a business leader must say \u201cI prepared my entire life for this\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Leadership is the heart of business value. A business leader will serve the business by managing with a customer and client satisfaction attitude, high employee morale; and a win-win mind-set. There is a difference between management and leadership. Professor Warren G. Bennis is quoted as saying \u2013 \u201cLeaders are people who do the right thing; managers are people who do things right. Leadership is strategic; management is tactical.<\/p>\n<p>Doubling business value requires applying G.B. Shaw\u2019s thought \u2013 You see things and say \u2018Why\u2019? But I dream things that never were; and I say \u2018Why not?\u2019 To double a business or enterprise value is one things, but then maybe you could double it again. With the right leadership approach, that is realistic. If you\u2019re a student, perform a case study on two successful businesses. Then ask yourself \u2013 has a leadership mindset contributed towards that success?<\/p>\n<p>Leadership requires more than vision, it requires active listening, confidence, courage, an understanding of your strengths and weaknesses, problem solving, helping others achieve things they never imagined possible, and building the team for the future.<\/p>\n<p>Leadership style and strategy may vary among business leaders, but\u00a0 leadership is a\u00a0pillar to doubling a business value.<\/p>\n<p>Step three in doubling your business value \u2013 Leadership<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Preface: Leadership style and strategy may vary among businesses; leadership is a substantial contributor to doubling a business value; and leadership requires more than a good vision.
