A good word…
People want to know they’re doing well. What ever you find that is good, say so. And even better would be to do it publicly.
“No man will make a great Leader who wants to do it all himself or get all the credit for doing it.”

Pick the leader among those who choose to follow you. Offer them the chance to take some leadership among the team. When you offer, it’s the first test you get them to take. If they take it, then maybe they have what is needed to become a leader in your team and if they don’t then maybe they still have some work to be done on them.
Do what needs to be done. But always offer your team to do some of it first. The more you’ll give them the opportunity to do, the more they’ll take from your shoulder. Support what is done and celebrate every success they’ll get.
“Leaders must be close enough to relate to others, but far enough ahead to motivate them.”
– John C. Maxwell
You don’t have to always be the top, but you need to be among the top. Leaders have to do what needs to be done if they want their team to do the same.
Motivating by example is the most powerful way to do it.
“Leadership is practiced not so much in words as in Attitude and in actions.”
– Harold S. Geneen
Your attitude will become the attitude of your team. Your action will become the action of your team. Don’t expect something different.
“People buy into the leader before they buy into the vision.”
– John C. Maxwell
A leader without a vision will not go far and will not get a lot of people to follow. The vision will drive the leader before it can drive the team.
