To be successful in business you must be able to lead people and remember there is more than one way to do it. Steve Jobs, founder of Apple, lead with a strong hand getting involved in every detail of his business compared to Herb Kelleher, founder of Southwest Airlines, whose approach was more of a free spirit. I'm sure both of them would give you different Leadership rules but they both were highly successful. Here are mine:

• Leaders make sure their team not only sees the vision but lives and breathes it.
• Leaders have the courage to make unpopular decisions.
• Leaders inspire learning by setting the example.
• Leaders establish trust, transparency, and credit.
• Leaders celebrate others' success.
