Give generously for your gifts will return to you later
King Solomon
This is one of the most wonderful lessons in life. That it is by giving to others that we ourselves receive. When we give a lot, we get a lot back. ‘
When we serve other people’s needs we grow and develop ourselves. We have countless opportunities to give and serve. Whether we belong to a team at work or in church, you and I can each day give a bit of ourselves through a kind word, a helpful suggestion, or a sense of understanding.
Wisdom teaches us to share love and respect with all people. By treating others lovingly and kindly we build good, long-lasting relationships. We accept and love people just the way they are. We celebrate their differences. We look to their strengths and their assets.
When we focus on people’s strengths and see their potential we help to build their belief in themselves. We treat others the way we want to be treated. You remember “the golden rule”. Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you.
What can you give more of in your professional and personally relationships this coming month?

Part 5
Without wise leadership, a nation is in trouble; but with good counselors there is safety.
King Solomon
Wise leaders understand their role to create the arena for their employee’s success. The arena makes it possible to interact in a winning way in relation to its surroundings.
We as individuals are unique and at the same time complementary and need a supportive leadership to develop fully.
Some leaders create leadership by enthusiasm when facing a task with themselves at the center.
Others lead by providing a clear picture of the situation and opportunities.
Others still have a more orderly manner to lead their group further to the development, taking it step by step.
A wise leader provides a sense of continuity for the team and defines limits that all have to comply with, mainly the leader himself.
About “The Key Leadership Principles”
This weeks Key Leadership Principle is “Lead by example”.
I will write one thought for every day during this week and then give you the opportunity to reflect on some important questions on how to Lead by example the following week.
This is the format I will use to inspire your learning, releasing your talent and potential. My hope is that you will come along with your thoughts along the way.
I wish you the best in your life and leadership,
Per Winblad
