As A Leader, This Is Your First Job

‘If people do not know what you want them to do, then they can hardly be expected to do it well.’- Ian Durston

No one is good at everything. If you want your people to give you what you want, you must first tell them what you want from them.

If you are not clear, if they don’t know what you want from them, then don’t expect them to perform well.

As a leader, your first job is to know what your people are good at. If you don’t know what your people can do, if you do not know what your people can’t do, then do not expect them to do well at what they are doing.

To succeed in life, to make a difference in your life, in the lives of those around you, you must know what you can do. If you don’t know what you are good at, you won’t be able to help others grow.
