Handling Criticism is an Important Leadership Skill
Monday, July 5, 2010 19:45Posted in category Leadership Characteristics
Dealing with criticism is an essential Leadership Skill. I have just read another brilliant post by John Maxwell 
regarding this subject – “When you Get Kicked in the Rear, You Know You’re Out in Front” Maxwell indicates that criticism is a part of leadership and good leaders must know how to handle it.
He covers 5 key areas for dealing effectively with criticism:
- Know yourself
- Know the criticism and the critics
- Stay Open to Change
- Accept Yourself
- Forget Yourself
I highly recommend reading this article. You can easily access by Clicking Here. Handling criticism is an important Leadership Skill.
John Maxwell is an amazing leader. I appreciate his work and find great value in what he has to offer. His work is a must for anyone wishing to improve their leadership abilities.
