Selfless Leadership – Getting Results

Larry Wyche Blog

Introduction

Selfless leadership is a truly visionary approach to leading and managing people. We live in a world of constant change, and those who wish to lead must be able to adapt. It is a way of leading that brings out the best in employees and teams, by seeing them as individuals who deserve respect and care. Leaders who practice selfless leadership are able to create an environment where employees can grow and develop personally, professionally, and spiritually.

In this article we’ll explore what selfless leadership is all about—and how ‘getting results’ are key to this type of leadership.

Developing Selfless Leaders

  • Leadership is not something that comes naturally. It is a skill that can be developed.
  • Developing leaders takes time and effort, but it’s worth it because of the results they’ll bring to your organization.
  • A selfless leader has the right mindset, which means they want to help others succeed, even if it doesn’t benefit them personally.
  • You don’t need formal training or an official title to be a leader – all you need is influence and service, which can come in many forms: raising money for charity; volunteering at a local shelter or school; mentoring someone who wants to learn how to lead other people in their community…the examples are endless!

The Beauty of ‘Getting Results’

While getting results is a part of the job, it is only a part. Remember, your real job as a leader is to be a visionary leader who gets results.

Getting results is important because it helps you meet your goals and objectives as well as those of your team members. If you don’t get results, then no one will want to work for you or with you for long periods of time. They won’t trust that any effort they put into achieving their own personal growth or professional development will be worthwhile if at the end of the day they’re stuck in an environment where nothing ever changes or improves due to lackadaisical leadership efforts from above (i.e., yours).

Conclusion

We know for sure that little is for sure and that world is unknown and unknowable. Selfless leadership is an adaptable style that can help leaders navigate this changing environment. It’s time to embrace the idea that delivering results is an essential part of selfless leadership. It’s not about everyone getting what they want, but rather about bringing out the best in each person so that the organization benefits from their skills and experience.
