Consider Hollywood film mogul Harvey Weinstein, who for decades auditioned young female talent on his infamous casting couch. Or, remember United Airlines CEO Oscar Munoz, whose boorish insensitivity went viral after a \u201cbloodied customer\u201d was dragged off of a United flight. In one week, United lost more than half a billion dollars in market capitalization because of Munoz\u2019s behavior. Then there is former Wells Fargo CEO John Stumpf, who tried to blame \u201csome 5,300 employees\u201d for gross corporate malfeasance that became public. During a US Senate Banking Committee hearing, one senator called Stumpf \u201cgutless.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Good Leaders<\/p>\n<p>Good leaders are exemplary, decisive people with discipline, integrity, good judgment and high ideals. They work to improve themselves as leaders \u2013 and as human beings. They focus on others, not themselves. Good leaders respect the people around them and work to ensure their success. Nothing in life is guaranteed. Good leaders may do everything right and still fail miserably. Because of their character, they don\u2019t let failure undermine them. They understand that it has a saving grace: It keeps people humble. Good leaders are experts at \u201cego management.\u201d They are confident, but not arrogant. To stay grounded, they remind themselves that, in the larger scheme of things, they are insignificant.<\/p>\n<p>Reality Checks<\/p>\n<p>Good leaders can turn to these reality checks to remain humble:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u201cAsk questions\u201d \u2013 You don\u2019t know everything, so don\u2019t pretend you do. Others will appreciate that you know you don\u2019t have all the answers.<\/li>\n<li>\u201cShow your warts\u201d \u2013 No one\u2019s perfect. Your mistakes demonstrate that you\u2019re human, just like everyone else.<\/li>\n<li>\u201cSurround yourself with people who are smarter than you\u201d \u2013 As Steve Jobs advised: \u201cIt doesn\u2019t make sense to hire smart people and then tell them what to do; we hire smart people so they can tell us what to do.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cSpend time with people you outrank\u201d \u2013 They are closer to the work than you are, and you can learn from them.<\/li>\n<li>\u201cOpen yourself up to feedback\u201d \u2013 It\u2019s impossible to gauge your own leadership prowess objectively. Ask for \u201chonest, unfiltered feedback.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Give someone \u201cpermission to help you check yourself\u201d \u2013 Identify a trusted confidant to look out for you when your ego works against you.<\/li>\n<li>\u201cSay \u2018thank you\u2019 sincerely and often\u201d \u2013 Being grateful is respectful and polite; being ungrateful is arrogant. \u201cPick a side\u201d \u2013 As a leader, decide if you are there to help others or to help yourself. Choose whether you will \u201clead or rule.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Source: The Leadership Killer Reclaiming Humility in an Age of Arrogance Bill Treasurer and John R.
