If I could give you an idea that would help you become a better leader would you be interested? What if I told you that it\’s easier than you might think? That perhaps we all try too hard and as a result we take power and control away from those that look to us for guidance. That as leaders we should be doing more to create a relationship of honor, trust and respect rather than thinking we\’re helping by doing everything for people. If I could help free you of the burden of doing everyone else\’s work, wouldn\’t life be easier for you as a leader?

Limiting freedom of people who want to learn from you by teaching them to depend on you may cause them to have a sense that you feel they aren\’t intelligent or creative enough to make their own choices. They may fear being without you when the time comes for them to go their own way. To really help others for the long haul teach them what making their own choices will feel like, look like and how they will benefit from it. Ask them to complete tasks for themselves rather than doing it for them.

By allowing those you are leading the freedom to make their own choices you are building a relationship of respect and honor. Show honor and respect by sharing control in the relationship your building with your students. They will in turn learn to become problem solvers for themselves and to think their way through obstacles rather than relying on you for everything. They will learn to use their own knowledge and make their own decisions that will move them forward towards their goals.

Introducing your students to freedom right away will help them feel okay with making mistakes. You will be there for them to help them if they have questions to get them started safely. Giving them freedom right away gives them you as a safety net just in case they stumble. But they need to realize that soon they will be on their own. Be sure that you let them know they are more important to you than the choices they make.

Let\’s say you teach them that they really need to do a specific training on marketing tips, but they don\’t get it done. Don\’t be disappointed in them, just let them know that it was their choice to make the decision to do it or not and refuse to take responsibility for their action. Then just keep moving forward in your training allowing them to make choices along the way. Make sure they know you aren\’t going to give up on them and they are still worthy of your time.

Be sure as a leader that you know what your goal is for your student. Are you wanting them to be dependent on you or would you prefer that they make their own decisions? Is it better to build a relationship with people who will become leaders too, or do you want followers waiting for you to do the next step for them? Are you willing to take a close look at yourself to be sure you are fearless and ready to be independent? Or are you depending on someone else to control your choices? Are you prepared to accept mistakes as they happen and not be fearful of them but take control and be accepting anyway?

By empowering your students you won\’t have the burden of doing everything for them. You will be teaching them to become independent leaders too. Isn\’t that so much easier than taking on everything all by yourself? Best wishes for you and your business.
