ood leadership leaves great impressions, and
the best way to make them is to walk around and be engaged with employees and
customers. Steve Wynn was always hanging out with customers and employees,
asking for their thoughts and listening to their answers: that leadership style
rubbed off on and encouraged us to spend much of our time out of our offices
too. It helped me to know what employees thought about and wanted and gave me
the confidence to believe in the programs I designed and implemented - like
catching employees doing things right rather than only disciplining them when
they did things wrong and the importance of explaining “why” when giving
directions Don’t be afraid to delve deeply into the things you’re responsible
for: that’s how you’ll know if they will work and be accepted. And it’s the
best way to leave a good impression today.
