“If you give people freedom, they will amaze you. Get out of their way and they will do the right thing 99% of the time. They’ll do remarkable things and all you need to do is give them a little infrastructure and a lot of room to change the world. And I think that holds in any industry.” (Aimee O’Malley, Google at the CIPD Annual Conference.)

 

Always remember – It is okay to fail. Failure allows for success whilst learning along the way. Mistakes are made to happen and allows us to say “that didn’t work, let’s move on.” Observing others can help to learn from mistakes and to turn failure into success.

It takes time to practice good leadership skills until they become part of who you are. Take advantage of the knowledge of those around you to improve your career and leadership prospects.
