So now you have gone from an environment where you meet together many days a week to an environment where you can’t. An environment where you were face to face to an environment where you are using technology to communicate.
But you are a leader and leaders do what they need to do to make things happen. Leadership is personal development, team development and winning. The environment has little effect other than to change the game moves a little bit.
What has to change for you still to be an effective leader in an environment where people are remote. Where there is fear. Where they are not sure of what is going to happen next.
Today I want to look at some best practices for online leadership. Over the next 2 days, we will explore some additional areas of leadership in this time of the coronavirus.
Here are 10 for you to start with.
Have you ever been to an event and met Joe Obnoxious? You cannot mistake him for anyone else. Joe comes up to you and just starts talking about what he does, how well he does it, and how you should do it with him.
Or what about Joanna Obnoxious, who starts talking to you and, while talking. she is looking all over the room to see who else is there, who might be more important than you. Then just after she asks you what you do, she excuses herself and takes off to see someone else.
The word that comes to mind is “obnoxious.”
The action that comes to mind is, “How can I stay away from this person and how can I keep her/him away from my friends?”
One of the biggest keys to success in speaking with people is listening and letting the other person talk. Ask questions, never assume you know anything. You saw these two people above, they did not follow any of these rules, nor did they understand the principles. They did not understand, “he who asks the questions controls the conversation.”
When you run into Mr. and Ms. Obnoxious, you simply say to them, “sorry but I have to go.” Then move away from them. Don’t worry about what they might think. By the time you get 10 feet away, they will already have found someone else to annoy.
Come and listen to Ben Gioia as he shares with you the tools and techniques you need to bring your book to reality.

If you have been thinking about the book, as so many have, this is the podcast for you to listen to.
It seems technology might be a great resource to keeping you and your team working and perhaps safe during this time of fear.
Are you ready to move your team to working remotely?
Can this be done for your business?
Some businesses it cannot – but what can you do?
The great thing about this situation is that it is making us think of how we can use technology much more in our business.
Business may never go back to normal, but we must continue to do business.
What can you do to move your business team to working remotely? Let’s look at 3 things that can help you in making this happen. Yes, there are many more, but we have to start some place.
We all love to make cold calls, don’t we?
Forget that line that “cold calling is dead.”
Never buy into it.
If you cold call consistently, you will get appointments, and you will close business.
Cold calling is alive, and if used in conjunction with other tools, will increase your sales to phenomenal new levels of success.
Vision without action is daydreaming
Action without vision is a nightmare
Vision with action is beautiful reality.
From the Book, Beside Still Water.
Vision is the first sign you will see on the road to success.
It is big, it is bold, and it gets your attention.
Vision!
Right now, close your eyes(unless you are driving or doing something that needs your attention) and just think about what you really want in life. Don’t rush. Take your time doing this, just let your mind wander into the future.
Where are you?
What does it look like?
What does it feel like?
Do this for a bit, then when you stop, write down everything you think is important. Then keep this for the future.
