Quantitative Pleasing ……
by Sunil Bali, 23-09-12
I’m very fortunate and grateful to have had some great mentors; people who have left an indelible mark on me.
The one thing that these great leaders have in common is that people talk about them behind their back – in glowing terms. They have a magnetic quality which attracts and softens the most hardened and cynical of souls.
In my experience, great leaders make a mark because:
- They are remarkable, defn. worthy of making a remark about.
- They don’t add to the noise, they are the signal.
- They’re not "chewing gum leaders" – their impact doesn’t disappear after a few minutes.
- They leave people better than when they found them.
When it comes to enhancing your personal brand, nothing is more powerful than Word of Mouth.
We humans trust other humans more than we do advertising and marketing, even if they’re strangers. So get people talking behind your back.
If you pick up a glass you’ll leave a mark – a fingerprint. When we meet people we leave an emotional fingerprint. What’s your fingerprint? What do people say about you when you’re not in the room?
