1. Leaders Keep on Learning While Teaching Others

Leaders keep on learning while teaching others, because for your team to grow, you must grow. There are some ways you can maintain a teachable spirit to learn from the people and situations you face on a regular basis. It is vital to stay connected to other organizational leaders and business networks. Leaders should never miss an opportunity take advantage of continuing education trainings, whether in their professional field or for personal growth.  I’m Glennys Hyland the author of I Am Real and I want to encourage you to read my article, A Teachable Spirit is Gold in the Life of a Leader.

2. Changes Are Not Always Easy

Obviously, throughout the years, things change. Better processes are developed, different methods of teaching are practiced, and technology advances to make work easier and more productive. However, if you do not stay connected to the latest changes and listen to others for creative thought and technical information, you might miss out on these tools. Changes are not always easy, but sometimes they are necessary for improvement. Therefore, stay connected to fellow leaders to keep on learning while continually teaching others.

3. Don’t Miss an Opportunity to Learn

Don’t miss an opportunity to learn. It is possible to learn something out of every situation in life, even the bad, and uncomfortable ones. When you are leading something, do not forget: many are watching you—how you react in a conflict situation while under pressure, dealing with another’s mistake, and so on. Other leaders watch and learn from your responses too, not just your team. Remember, as the leader, the stage light shines on you. Your reputation is extremely important. It will impact the ministry, organization, or business that you lead. Your actions are more teachable than words.

4. Leaders Learn From Their Own Mistakes

Even when you think no one is watching, many are learning from you. Never forget that! Great leaders know how to turn a bad situation into an opportunity to learn and teach others to avoid repeating a comparable situation. Leaders learn from their own mistakes, and the mistakes of others. It is in these moments that others can see you grow as a leader, and your capability to respond well allows others to trust in your leadership. As a leader, you never stop learning and growing. A teachable spirit is an essential personal quality leaders must maintain to make their business, organization, or ministry different from others.
