*If you want to know the real character of a leader, watch out how they
treat people they don’t need. People are always nice to people they expect
things from. It takes character and commitment to deal with conflicts and
people the right way*. – Femi Adediran, October 2015
*You can’t be a great leader without having somebody you can talk to,
somebody you can be honest and be true to, saying; “this is who I am”,
somebody with whom you can be transparent and honest. If you have three
confidants in a life time, you have done really well *- Femi Adediran,

*If you can get a few people to be there for you, you don’t need everybody
in the whole wide world to be there for you. Avoid personal attitude in a
professional situation *- Femi Adediran, October 2015
*As a leader you must be able to rejoice always when people come to you and
when they leave you. You must understand that people come and go. You must
be able to cope with people leaving *- Femi Adediran, October 2015

TEAM BUILDING
Team building is critical to great leadership
In team building, you need three very important relationships, viz;
Confidants, constituents and comrades
CONFIDANTS
Great leaders have confidant
You can’t be a great leader without having somebody you can talk to,
somebody you can be honest and be true to, saying; “this is who I am”,
somebody with whom you can be transparent and honest. If you have three
confidants in a life time, you have done really well
Your confidants are with you in all situations, when you go up and when you
come down, when things are good and when things are bad, when you are the
star and when nobody remembers you
There is no pressure to impress your confidant, you can be beside yourself
before your confidant, you don’t even need to look great before your
confidant
The real reason you are tired of people around you is because you want to
relax, you are never tired of a confidant because you can relax in their
presence
Your confidant is only committed to you and not to your assignment. Your
confidant is with you because of you not because of your assignment.
Confidant is about your relationship not your assignment
CONSTITUENTS
This relationship is because of your assignment
Your constituents are primarily with you because of the assignment and not
you
Confidant and constituent do same thing but for different reason…it’s about
you or about the assignment
You must be able to work with people who come and go…Constituents come and
go
Don’t get bitter over people who leave you
As a leader you must be able to rejoice always when people come to you and
when they leave you. You must understand that people come and go
You must be able to cope with people leaving
If you can get a few people to be there for you, you don’t need everybody
in the whole wide world to be there for you. Avoid personal attitude in a
professional situation
COMRADES
Comrades are here to help. Comrades help you to fight perceived common
enemies if only to get the enemy out of the way
The Pharisees and the Sadducees had to come together to fight a common
enemy: JESUS.
You need each team member to get to the next level however
You are a leader called for such a time like this
Do what is in your heart and Spirit now…Take the Lead…Be Daring!
Nice weekend, friends
Best,
