Love Works: Mountain Background
Transcript: Trusting: Place confidence in someone What was done to you doesn't matter in the end: all that matters is how you respond. Forgive someone who has wronged you. The longer you hold a grudge, the longer the grudge has a hold on you. Forgiveness releases you to focus on love & relationship, not anger. Forgiveness can release the person you forgive & give that person a fresh start. Forgiveness has a positive ripple effect that often extends for beyond our comprehension.

Forgiving: Release the Grip of the Grudge Listening carefully is a sign of trust. Interrupting people is a sign of distrust. Let others make the decisions they are responsible for. Avoid overriding a decision that has already been made unless it is absolutely necessary. Everyone matters. Everyone in your organization is dealing with something. Leading with love will help people get through their struggles. Model a lifestyle of leading with love. True contentment comes when we act in alignment with one set of values at work, at home, and in the community. A lifetime of being PATIENT, KIND, TRUSTING, UNSELFISH, TRUTHFUL, FORGIVING, & DEDICATED will lead to living a life of HUMILITY. We become humble only as we focus on others. Love Works. Seven Timeless Principles for Effective Leaders by Joel Manby Don't be patient with poor performance. Be patient with how you respond to poor performance. Praise patiently in public. Be specific and exact. Be legitimate; false praise kills creativity. Admonish in private. Private admonishment is effective and protects a person's dignity. Get to the point and be specific; reaffirm the person's value; get the person "back on the horse"; and don't speak of the reason for admonishment again. Unselfish: Think of yourself less Patient: Have Self-Control in Difficult Situations Make their day better. Every time you contact someone, you can make their day better or worse; so make it better. Making a day "better" sometimes requires very little action or effort. Write 'em up. Break through the email clutter & use handwritten notes of thanks. Begin each day reflecting on the previous day, thinking about what you want to reinforce. Consider writing notes to spouses as well. Be unselfish with your personal time & talent to make yourself, your organization, and the world better. Help your organization be unselfish. Give your time & talent to develop internal leaders. "Do for one what you wish you could do for all." Great leaders need to use both love & authority. Love without authority & authority without love are ineffective & unhealthy in relationships or organizations. Great leaders know how to navigate in tough times. It is possible to lead with love in the difficult times, but it takes dedication to the cause. Leaders must make difficult decisions; how they handle those decisions separates those who lead with love from those who don't. Be truthful about the organization. Don't "shoot the messenger" or confuse disagreement with conflict. Don't assume people see the truth; speak up. Be truthful to an employee. Same as / More of / Less of is an effective tool to communicate the truth. Be open to hearing the truth. No matter how you do it, find an accountability partner(s) in your life who will always tell you the truth about yourself. Photo used with permission from Jenica M.
