Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others.” – Jack Welch, former CEO of General Electric

You, as the project manager, have the responsibility of ensuring that your team members perform in an effective and efficient manner that, in turn, affects the team’s overall productivity.

As team leader, one of your most important jobs is to motivate, inspire and encourage your members to work better, harder and smarter – and the best way to do is to lead by example.
When your team members see your unbridled enthusiasm, positive energy and deep commitment to the project, they will be motivated to follow your example.
Otherwise, you will be unable to identify and address project risks as early and appropriately as necessary.
