Invest time getting to know people, because that’s how you build trust. After all, you can’t really lead people if they don’t trust you enough to follow. #elevenmadisonpark #howleaderslead #davidnovak #willguidara #thankyou #nytbestseller #hospitality #dailyinsight

Invest the time to get to know the people that work for you. You can read a bunch of books, you can have a bunch of strategies, and a lot of those strategies are going to be instrumental in helping you be a more effective leader. But at the end of the day, you can't lead a group that isn't willing to follow you. And one of the best ways to get people to follow you is if they trust you. And it is so much easier for people to trust you if they know you and feel known by you. And that only happens if you invest the time to pursue your relationships with them.
