Leadership Warriors

At first I was not aware that there were great leaders and forces guiding me to become a leader by becoming a good follower. My training started went my first sister was born and as more siblings came along I got more responsibilities. I wish that I could say that I was a great big brother and awesome leader. I sure that if you survey my first five sibling the disagree would be mark more often. My leadership style was bad and the CEO my mother was very good with the belt and her slippers. Making point that following me would that lesson was handle with her freshly cut switch because they were hard and you swear she had ninja training. The first lesson that sometime bad decision have serious consequence. My second lesson that I should have learned was that it does matter if you are a born leader you still need training.

What ever we chose to do in life make it something you love and have fun doing!

I have love baseball from the time I could hold a ball and growing up in south Texas we could play almost all year around. We didn’t have T-Ball but we play street ball. In the fourth grade we I able to play organize fast pitch softball and I became starting catcher and fifth grade I was allow to play Little League Baseball. I was draft into the majors which in there were two leagues minors and majors. It was not common to be drafted in to the major and really did not care cause all I wanted to do is to play. The training began and coach Vera became my sensei for my next fours season and from there on in my first season I became starting catcher and the coach took me aside and told me that the catcher was the leader and a leader leads by ensample I did not understand I just wanted to play and I was up to bat. As I was getting my catcher gear on coach told me that as a catcher had the view whole playing field and to learn how use and take advantage. I did not full understand. The first season we lost seven games and after every game coach would ask me to share what I had learn and from the games we lost he ask the whole team what we have learn. Most of us would learn that mental our head was not in the game. Only the first season did we said that we need more practices. The lesson from that is that we need to always focus on our role in the team. I learn that as leader playing hard every ended gave me the right to go talk to any member of the team to stay in the in the game. I talk to pitcher to focus on me a my glove. Lead by example

In our second season we were able to win nine games and we had five guys that turn thirteen so we had five new players started. Coach ask me to help in practice so I a became an assistant coach and they needed to learn the fundamentals. Each team is allow a roster of fifteen sometime we lose between four to six players. I needed to have people ready to play and more important to have someone to play catcher in case I was injurer I was also a back up pitcher in the second season. I hope that you notice that I am taking more responsibilities as leader. In our third season we won eleven out twelve game and were city champions. We lost two out of three game and the opportunity to move to qualified to get closer the Little League World Series. Coach ask me to share what I had learn that season. First that we had reach our goal to win the city champions. We won our 15 game out 17 and take on the prior years champions and beat them with six run because as a team we made the commitment that we were going to beat them. I also share the all season when we made our mind up to do the impossible we did I talk the game about a game that in the fourth inning we were being spank 12 to 0 and we came back to win 12 to 16. It is not enough to be good you need to believe that your are. Lessons learn is selling the goals. A leader needs to paint the picture of the mission sell the best route to take and went team falls show how to get up and move forward. My last season we made all the way the to the Southwest Regional Little League World Series were we played we lost the first and won two and losing the last game eliminating us out. Many of the team were disappointed as I was. But went the Coach said to us that we lost because we have become prima donnas. He call on me to talk to the team. I was very proud and said that we need to be proud. To think that for that seasons we were the best baseball team in Texas and no one could take that away. Lesson we lost we fell but we fell other time we got up and be came champions of a big state and now I was ready to learn.

Images for servant military leader taking care of their followers

Why would anyone want to be a manager, supervisor, line leader having to watch over people that should know what is expect from them. Many are throw into a responsibilities of leadership because they are great employees. Others will think I can ran things my way and make more money and get respected. Than we had the by the book leader and he knows everything . Went they fail to accomplish goals and deliver results it because they did not have the right people on the team. Understand that as leaders we answer to leaders for our results good or bad. The sooner we learn how to be servant the easier and better we become as leaders. If you do not like people and believe that you are surround by stupid people I can only suggest you try be a good follower.

I am not going to paint a picture that leadership will be easy but learning to enjoy what you do will help you feel good at the end of the day. As a leader in the army I had to go through Non-Commissioned-Officer training. An Infantry unit most important tool is the feet and making sure that every man packs plenty socks. Also went we are short or long distance patrol it is important that we check every squad members feet and if they have blister do first aid and everyone need to put on clean sock. Make sure our members are ready to take action every one plays important role in combat. I always remember went Jesus Christ wash the disciples. Ten important characteristics that I use and I have notice that the professor in Whitewater use them. I did not include this one in the ten but I mentions early. You needed to love people.

Listening to better serve people and make commitment to listening careful to them and understand what the are saying. To improve your listening skill and give people your full attention. Watch their body language and avoid interrupting them before they are done speaking. This you will be able to give feedback on what the said. Leaders strive to understand people intentions and perspectives. You can be more empathetic by not give your viewpoint and values. Empathy requires us to approach any situation with and open mind. Healing involves supporting them both physically and mentally. Make sure that their is support and resources and your people have knowledge of them. Take steps to help them be happy in their role in the team. Being self-aware is the ability to look at yourself, think deeply about your emotions and behavior, and consider how they affect the people around you and align with your values. Learn to use persuasion rather than your positions to encourage people to take action. Building a team makes it easier. Learn your people’s short and long term goal. You can dream bigger dreams allowing you to help your people see be the bigger or see beyond today. Understanding how to what is likely to happen in the future by looking history learning from past experiences and determine what is happening now, and be willing to except the consequences of your decisions.

  If you are leader or not, you have a responsibility for the things that happen in your company. A leader or team member we need to take responsibility for the actions of our team, and being accountable for the roles team members play in your organization. As leaders we need to  committed to the personal and professional development of the team and every member. The average person spend thirteen years and two months of our life at our employment. So leaders creating a community structure within our organization. By providing opportunities team member meet and interact with others in different departments. Having team lunches and other events design to encourage informal chit chat. Encouraging people to take responsibility and have pride in a job well done. Enjoy being a a manger, supervisors and a baseball coach. I enjoy seeing team successes member and when youth boy make connected to a pitch or make a great play and see the smile and pride on his face is amusing feel that come over me is indescribable. The best perk of leadership.
