7 Habits of Highly Performing Leaders TODAY
It is so evident that we live in a world of so much change and transformation today! As a result, we need to continue to grow and commit ourselves to excellence by practicing high performing leadership habits to thrive.
For some people, this attitude may not be as appealing at all, since it requires daily sacrifices and tremendous commitment to achieve high-performance impact individually, within the team, and overall organization. The key is are we willing to go against the grain and mediocrity.
Nothing great is achieved without effort or commitment!
Are we complementing our talent and skill set to our team? Are we aligned with and committed to a common purpose?
Today’s need for better, faster, and more efficient performance by individual contributors, teams, and overall organizations is requiring high-performance impact. The impact can be measured in numerous ways based on the width and depth of produced results.
You may want to explore the seven key mindset habits for producing superior results:
1. Fearless – They bring their confidence and respect for others while facing the biggest challenges or obstacles knowing that that they cannot only face but also find a solution. They exude influence and strong presence. They do things that scare them every day by maintaining their fearless habit.
2. Patient – They are committed to investing their time and effort knowing that their superior results require not only hard work but also time. They stay focused on their goals, objectives, and process.
3. Daring - They are willing to take on complex issues and challenges, and they persevere until they solve them. But more than anything, they are prepared to do hard things first, especially when important decisions need to be made.
4. Knowledgeable – They are life-long learners with a willingness to learn from everything they do, especially their failures! The high performers makes a tremendous impact because they apply lessons learned from adversity and major setbacks.
5. Collaborative – They are in true sense collaborators, bringing committed individuals and teams together while producing results. They make sure that everybody’s contribution counts. They do not confuse cooperation with collaboration, and they communicate that to the others clearly.
6. Appreciative - They focus on what it works to drive winning performance and impact while building thriving individuals, teams, and organizations. Their genuine attitude of gratitude for everyone and everything in their life is so infectious!
7. Innovative – They are transformational thinkers capable of seeing things from a 360-degree perspective while keeping the focus on the key objectives. The best part, they are innovative and exude a climate of reciprocal trust while often taking advantage of new solutions never done before. They inspire and motivate their actions while delivering speedy results.
As an athlete needs high performing shoes or coaches the best tools and techniques, organizations need a high-performing vehicle with a superb engine to get their teams from where they are to where they need to go.

An interesting and useful post. I'm struggling to get to grips with leadership and gain a clarity of understanding and your post prompted a question in relation to the habits. A quick internet search reveals there are many other lists of 7 habits (http://bit.ly/1RwvlI5) associated with leadership. There are so many I’m finding it difficult to make sense of them. Although the content of these lists is often similar, though using different language and expression, the habits seem well known and promoted for many years. It appears that we seem content to produce lists of the same habits repeatedly in the face of the obviousness that the knowing about the habits isn’t making a difference – if it had your post would be superfluous. Thus, it seems that we are shouting ever louder about the same things in the hope that the volume will make a difference, even though our experience tells us it won’t. This can’t be the case as valuable contributions such as yours keep appearing on a regular basis, so I must be missing something. As the habits in your post seem well explored in the leadership knowledge base, and contained in many other lists of habits, I was wondering if you could give me some insight with regards how your list relates to the other lists and what differentiates your list. I hope the above makes some sense, as I’m not sure what my questions are.
