Corner Office: Good Leaders Know People — Including Oneself
Choosing the right people for the right jobs and overcoming the personal distance created by a leader's title can make the difference between success and failure.
If you are not sure how you are perceived as a leader, there are two things you can do to develop self-awareness. First, do an anonymous, objective, 360-degree review on yourself. Be sure to include people who love you and people who might not. Do this every couple years, and heed the results.
Second, identify one or two trusted, well-placed people who will tell you the truth. A lot of leaders fail to give permission to people to talk honestly with them. But you need that.
