As leader you have opportunity to lead, supervise, mentor and motivate others and your ability to do so effectively makes huge difference to your company’s overall success. Author from “it’s your ship management Techniques from the best damn ship in navy” gave such good examples of how to take command, learn real leadership and lead by example.

While you are still an individual contributor, learn to think like your boss, so when the day comes to be a leader, you are ready to step right in with your game plan in hand. Lean how to manage the situation in absence of boss and lead the team well. For example I have seen real life situation when I was in TN and working as pharmacy technician four years ago. It was about afternoon and sunny day there were only one pharmacist and one technician. My pharmacist decided to take 10 min lunch break and ask me to take care phone calls and prescription until she come back.

If you demonstrate any sort of negativity, others will soon follow. For example, if you work in pharmacy and if pharmacist treat patient as customer and get angry on patient question then his staff will follow and will not respect patient question when they come to pick up the prescription. If leader has a bad day, the whole organization will have bad day. If you are enthusiastic leader, they your workforce will be as enthusiastic as you are. The only lesson we should learn from author is that everyone has a dark side, and the more you understand it, the
