A recent Harvard Business Review article states that "energy is a neglected dimension of leadership". How true. Here are the three main characteristics of leaders who are energizers:
1. A relentless focus on the bright side. Energizers find the positive and run with it.
2. Redefining negatives as positives. Energizers are can-do people.
3. Fast response time. Energizers don't dawdle. Energizers don't tell you all the reasons something can't be done. They just get to it.
What energy do you contribute as a leader?
