Key Highlights

• Admired Leaders excel at both driving performance AND creating strong followership - a rare combination found in only a small percentage of leaders
• The Admired Leadership approach focuses on universal behaviors that: - Can be explained in under 5 minutes - Are immediately actionable - Work across all demographics and industries
• On Praise and Recognition: - Admired Leaders tend to be "praise stingy" but highly effective with positive feedback - They distinguish between general praise and specific positive feedback - When they do give praise, they make it count by being specific and meaningful
• Key Insight: The difference between praise and positive feedback is utility - positive feedback tells people exactly what they did well and what to continue doing
• Practical Application: - Leaders struggling with giving recognition can focus on specific positive feedback rather than general praise - Consider tracking system to ensure giving at least one piece of positive feedback daily - Recognition can extend beyond work to family and personal relationships
