Leadership mistakes to avoid

Leadership mistakes contribute to falling standards around the office due to a lack of motivation or inefficient management.

Here are some leadership mistakes to avoid in the workplace.

Being hypocritical
Leaders that do not meet the expectations they set will lose the loyalty and respect of their employees. If you require your staff to come in ten minutes early every day or are strict on their lunch break, follow your own rules. Setting a consistent standard will make employees feel they are being treated fairly.

Shifting blame
Employers that do not take accountability for their own mistakes and shift blame onto their customer or their employees will lose the support of both. Admitting you are in the wrong is essential for moving forward with the business relationship by making amends.

Poor delegation
Your delegation will fail if the task is given to an unsuitable member of staff or a new responsibility is given without the leader providing training and feedback.
