LAW OF ADDITION
The law of addition focuses on how to add value to your team in order to create more leaders to grow. Leaders who pour into their teams create more leaders. We know we can use more authentic leadership these days.
True leaders ask “How can I serve?” Because they are focused on service, it’s not so much about “What’s in it for me.”
As a retail leader, a large portion of your role is to invest in your team beyond their paycheck. The law of addition provides you an idea of how to serve your team
Three tips on how t add value to your team
- Value others
- Value their time
- Information - people seem to have inside knowledge on a market, idea, trend, or community, and are known as people who spread change through their knowledge.
- Culture - what time of culture are you creating as a leader
- Make yourself more valuable
The premise of adding value to the lives of your team members is that you intentionally add impact and substance. You cannot give what you don’t have.
- Know and relate to what others value
“Inexperienced leaders are quick to lead before knowing anything about the people they intend to lead. But mature leaders listen, learn, and then lead.” John C. Maxwell
Many leaders are too quick to take charge. A good leader takes the opportunity to listen to what every person believes is important and then leads.
“The bottom line in leadership isn’t how far we advance ourselves but how far we advance others,” John C. Maxwell wrote. Great leaders derive pleasure from making life better for others by adding value to them. They are intentional about adding merit and making it part of their core values.
Developing and executing influence and being active in your own journey are keys to success.
