Leadership Principles from
Dale Carnegie's Golden Book

Begin with praise and honest
appreciation.

Call attention to people’s mistakes
indirectly.

Talk about your own mistakes before
criticizing the other person.

Ask questions instead of giving direct
orders.

Let the other person save face.

 Praise the slightest improvement and
praise every improvement.

Be “hearty
in your approbation and lavish in your
praise.”

Give the other person a fine reputation
to live up to.

Use encouragement. Make the fault
seem easy to correct.

Make the other person happy about
doing the thing you suggest.
 

You just got a promotion! Congratulations.
You're excited about it. Right?
Well...maybe not!

Are you wondering if you have what it takes to become a manager?
Are you concerned about the reaction of your fellow workers?
How will they treat you as a manager?
Will they still be your friends?
Can you still be their friend?

One thing’s for sure. Some things are going to change.

Your Life will move in a different direction.
 

 Like thousands and thousands of other people, you were promoted
because you’re one of the best workers in your department.
Your work ethic is strong, you put in a solid day’s work.
You understand and follow systems and procedures.
 You can work without close supervision.
You’re a consistent, top performer!

So why are you worried about becoming the manager?

Because no one has ever taught you how to manage.
You have some ideas about it, but you’re not sure!

  Now you have deal with people issues too. They can be tough.

Until now, you have been a top performer by working the system,
but now you will need to produce results through people.
That’s a whole new game.

Have you noticed that the managers who have the least trouble with people issues
are those who seem to be leaders, not just managers?

You can manage systems and procedures, but you have to lead people!

 If systems and procedures are run by people,
you’ll be a better manager
if you are a better leader.

 Now you can learn the leadership skills used by the most successful managers.
As a new manager, you’ll be eager to get started.

Why is it so important to get started leading as soon as possible?

Because the world is always changing and people naturally resist change,
but we know they get through it easier if they follow a leader.

Your recent promotion came from being a good performer.
Your next promotion will come from being a good leader
who manages well.

In doubt about what others will look for in your leadership style?
Know what’s expected, even if they don't.

They’ll recognize it when they see it.

Be recognized as someone who drives innovation by creating
an environment that fosters inventiveness.
 
Promote two way communications. Become known as a good listener
who has the patience and the time to understand employee concerns.
Weigh their input carefully and thoughtfully.

Do you suspect that someone else in the department
might feel they were overlooked for promotion?
Concerned that they might quit and make you look bad
in the eyes of your superiors?

Recognize potential in others. Help them feel important!

Ever wonder what to do with a great idea?
Become the one who can transform ideas
into action plans with Dale Carnegie's
proven 8-step planning process.

Develop and deploy action plans.

Have you wondered how you are ever going to run those long meetings?
 The ones that consume so much time and accomplish so little?
Know the difference between the basic types of meetings
and how best to run each of them.

Keep meetings on track.

Worried about becoming a “workaholic” who never gets home to enjoy life?
Leaders delegate to share the fun with others who want to play too!
Learn the 8-step delegation process,
hold people accountable.
They don’t object to it,
they prefer it!

Inspect what you expect! Get more respect.

Find it hard to make decisions? Find out how others do it.
There are no sure answers, but there are methods to discover your options.
Become known as a decision maker who lets others in on the process.

Get buy-in on decisions you make.

Know what to do when others make mistakes,
or when you do.

Does conflict scare you? How do you react when things go wrong?
Are there best practices for dealing with conflict? You bet!

Learn to disagree without being disagreeable!

Does the Coach have to be better than the player?
Does it worry you that others, under your leadership,
might exceed your previous skill level?
 

Discover how to use leadership skill to coach others
to reach their individual potential to perform.
Job skill earned you the promotion,
leadership will let you keep it.

Leadership is the key to your future.

Are you worried that all this might be too much to learn all at once.
You’re right. It is.

That’s why Leadership Training for Managers is not a crash course.
Instead, it’s one night a week, for 7 weeks.

Learn something new each week and then use it for a week.
 Come back next week and share your results with others.
Share what you discovered and learn
what they discovered.

You will learn leadership skills in a non-judgmental,
safe environment with others
who are learning too.

Don’t memorize. Practice what you learn!

 Why wait? Register for the next course and get started.
Don’t put this off any longer.
