Many of us at some point in our careers would have led a group of people to attain a common goal. At a larger level a Prime minister leads the country or CEO leads a company towards a particular direction in the interest of the people.
Some of the main responsibilities of a CEO are to look after the health and growth of the company, ensure financial stability, ensure employees are happy, identify the gaps and fix them on time, be a role model, have integrity, drive the company towards a better future, instill confidence in employees and shareholders and so on.
The point here is we must behave like a CEO in our family whether you are man or a woman. You need to be a role model and lead your next generation by example. You must work on yourself to be a strong leader in your family. Similar to a CEO you must take care of the health, wealth, bonding and happiness with in the family.
Leading by example is not the way but the ONLY way to inspire others to follow you. Walking the talk and talking the walk are essential strategies to instill trust in family. Instead of preaching our children it is lot more efficient to show them how to be health and prosperous in life. People will respect a doers and most probably follow them.
