Key takeaways — The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership
- ✓ Unawain ang The Law of the Lid, na nagsasabing ang paglago ng iyong organisasyon ay nakadepende sa iyong sariling kakayahan sa pamumuno, kaya't napakahalaga ang patuloy na pagpapabuti sa sarili bilang isang estratehikong pangangailangan.
- ✓ Gamitin ang The Law of Influence sa pamamagitan ng pagtutok sa paglilingkod sa iba kaysa sa pag-asa lamang sa iyong titulo, dahil ang tunay na pamumuno ay hindi maaaring ipagkatiwala o ipasa.
- ✓ Samantalahin ang The Law of the Process sa pamamagitan ng paglalaan ng oras sa maliliit na araw-araw na gawi sa pamumuno, na nauunawaan na ang kagalingan ay naitatag sa pamamagitan ng palagiang aksyon sa paglipas ng panahon, hindi sa isang iglap.
Key takeaways — Misbehaving
- ✓ Isaalang-alang ang pag-iwas sa pagkalugi: mas matindi ang takot ng tao na mawalan ng 100 dolyar kaysa ang pagnanais na kumita nito.
- ✓ Pagandahin ang ‘architectural choice’ sa produkto at opisina upang mahikayat ang mga tao sa tamang desisyon bilang default.
- ✓ Samantalahin ang mental accounting ng mga kliyente para sa mas epektibong pagpepresyo at marketing.
