I recently read an article titled, "10 phrases that will make you a better leader" by Dan McCarthy. I'm always interested in reading items which help me in my day to day journey of leadership. The link to the article is :

I was amazed by the simplicity of the phrases. "Thank you," "Nice job," "How can I help?" "Help me understand." Such simple words. Simple, yet powerful! I want to be an awesome leader. I want to have all the answers. I want to make all the right decisions. I want to push all the right buttons! It's times like this when I have to remind myself of one of my foundational leadership concepts: "Focus on the process, not the results."
I can't get overwhelmed with the big picture. I have to focus on the day to day journey (process). This article by McCarthy helps me keep that focus. Simple words, simple phrases, simple sincerity. Please review the list of phrases and be refreshed at how simple leadership can be!
