Leaders Keep Distance

Leaders Keep Distance


If you are too close to the pack you are at risk as a leader.

In business or civic organizations, the best of leaders deeply care for those they lead. However, that caring demands a balance...a certain professional distance. Why? If you get too close emotionally and physically to anyone in the group you lead, it will eventually lead to dilemma or crisis.  The crisis comes when you must make the tough call and do the right thing that could involve hurting that close relationship. 

Many a leader has faltered by having to consider friendship expectations that go counter to doing the right thing.  No universal law mandates you can't fraternize with those you lead, but tread carefully--the path is treacherous. The rules of good friendship and of good business relationships are very different and often operate at cross purposes. 

When you go to a party with your subordinates, don't let your hair completely down; don't be the last person to leave; don't drink and lose your judgment. Yes, have fun and be a real person, but maintain a slight but respectable distance. After all, if there is not space between you and those you lead, are you really leading?

ACTION: Take this Power Pill All Week Long
One by one, examine the relationships you have with members of the team you lead. Is each relationship healthy and functional without emotional complications that would impede the achievement of the team's core purpose? Examine & refine.
