Unselfishness JJ DID TIE BUCKLE
by Bill Schott
Leadership Traits:
Justice, Judgement, Dependability, Initiative, Decisiveness, Tact, Integrity, Endurance, Bearing (previously addressed), Unselfishness, Courage, Knowledge, Loyalty, and Enthusiasm.
Unselfish leaders make decisions that benefit as many as possible and do things because it's the right thing to do, not because it personally enriches them somehow, or there is some special benefit to them.
That pretty much eliminates the politicians of this era, and likely any era.
Leaders who perform unselfishly put others before themselves, ensuring that those who depend on his/her leadership do not come second.
In a field environment, the leader eats last, ensuring all are fed. The leader assumes responsibilty that security is provided, even being one who holds vigil while others rest. The good leader is willing to take the brunt, to keep others from needless suffering.
The utilitarian concept provides that the needs of the many override the needs of the few, or the one. One can see this in any example of personal sacrifice that serves the majority. As dramatic and lethal as jumping on a grenade, to as simple as giving from one's need to benefit those even less fortunate.
According to Gerald Gillis, who writes and lectures on leadership:
" An unselfish leader is open to new ideas and concepts, and from a variety of sources. So very often the employees actually doing the work have the best ideas on how a particular process can be improved. Let others be the experts. Build the bench strength by developing technical and leadership skills in employees."
In other words, good leaders are willing and happy to let others' input and ideas contribute to the groups success.
Selfishness always aims at uniformity of type. Unselfishness recognizes infinite variety of type as a delightful thing, accepts it, acquiesces in it, enjoys it. Oscar Wilde
