Establish your authority

Find the authority style that suits your strengths and personality
Pick one from the list above.

Focus on how you can serve others, and not your own interests.

Hone your listening skills and view leadership as a responsibility, not a privilege.

Develop a long-term vision, then work backward to create a path to your goal.

Lead by example.
Work hard, set high standards, be consistent and accountable, and sacrifice for the group.

Send some mixed signals to keep people guessing and thinking about you.
Don’t be too predictable.

Always be seen giving, and not taking, from the group.

Rejuvenate your authority regularly
Adjust to team dynamics and adapt to new audiences.
