Being a leader is not necessarily about being able to influence people, nor is it about trying to be above them.
I have worked for many years in the retail industry, I am a quiet reserved person, but in the working environment I always found myself taking control of situations, partly just by being good at my job, but partly just by being on the same level and communicating with the colleagues in my team.
A lot of what makes a good leader is having a true understanding of what you are leading them in so that you can best drive and motivate individuals to succeed
All you need to do is be able to listen, understand, reflect and support your team in every situation that they may encounter, I can guarantee you will never have all the answers you need, but that is where the support that you receive from those around you comes in to play.
In SFI you are surrounded by thousands of members that will be happy to help you in every way, if every you are stuck in a situation, all you have to do is ask. People helping people is the most natural form of leadership and is what will lead to your success as a Team Leader.
