The Leadership Minute #9
Leadership Trait: Be Fair
Show fair treatment to everyone. As a leader of many different people you have to cast aside ALL your prejudices or why bother.
I know that for some people this may involve breaking a lifelong existence but if you really want, it can be done.
Being fair and showing fairness 100% of the time is NOT negotiable.
If those you supervise see your fairness asa a sign of weakness it might just be time to reinforce to them that fairness is for everyone. Being fair to everyone and everyone being fair to each other works towards creating a successful organization and individuals.
Of course, there are times that your actions might not seem fair especially when it comes time to taking action against someone in the organization that was not being fair to you, co-workers, and the organization.
However, the individual who was not fair to the others will see it as they are being singled out. Meanwhile, to the organization not doing anything against that individual will not be fair. Thus you have to do what you must. There are no two-ways about it. It is just that important to the organization and those that work for the company and it is fair to everyone.
Stay true to yourself and you will be fair to others without fail.
