MenuHow does one become a "charismatic" leader?
There are leaders, and there are charismatic leaders. How does a leader become more charismatic?
Answers
I believe that "charismatic" isn't something you call yourself - It's something your audience / team / followers calls you.
In my experience charismatic people do tend to be extraordinarily passionate people.
So perhaps to become more charismatic - be more passionate.
First thing to remember is that you don't need to be a 'charismatic' leader to be successful.
I believe that when you speak from the heart about something you are passionate about and your goal is to help someone other than yourself (eg. employees, customers, community, etc...) your true charisma which we all possess will come to light.
I hope this helps
In simple language the word “Charismatic” means, “exercising a compelling charm which inspires devotion in others.” So how can you exercise this compelling charm? Well, it is simple. Just apply the appropriate leadership model to your company and become a charismatic leader. For example, you can apply Mintzberg’s Management Roles. These roles cover ten tasks and responsibilities that a manager may need to perform, which are divided up into three categories: interpersonal, informational, and decisional. Interpersonal roles include the figurehead, leader, and liaison. You may also apply Birkinshaw’s Four Dimensions of Management. This model highlights four dimensions that represent key management processes and practices.

Does anyone know a simple game or activity to teach leaders how to delegate?
Try designing an activity where the leader has to describe to his team members how to build something or complete a certain task, with his back facing the team so he can't see what they're doing. Succeeding in this type of activity will require that the leader is able to use clear communication without being directly involved or micromanaging the situation. It will also require trust from both parties, and will force the team members to work together & help each other as they try to work out the specifics of carrying out the task. You can follow the activity with questions about what the leader did well and what he could have done better, and also what was frustrating for the leader. Push them to articulate how this activity translates to work in their organization. Here's a great example of this activity with a bit more detail: https://prezi.com/i1w8-bnyso-l/activity-to-teach-delegation/SB

What are some of the most important leadership trends of Today?
Your question and your question detail are quite different. First, your question: The most important leadership trend is that the nature of leadership is changing. People want more autonomy and less oversight and direct management. Do you currently have a team? By the details you provided, it sounds like you are asking this question in hopes of being prepared to lead *when* you have a team, not asking about the team you have to date. Either way, leadership is much like parenting. Everyone has an opinion of how you should do it, but you will do what feels right to you, which is a process of much experimentation and feedback. Don't overthink the issue of leadership, especially in very small teams and companies. I'm happy to talk to you about specific issues you're dealing with or worried about to provide you very direct responses to those concerns.TW

My partner is an idea person who refuses professional business plan. Is this typical of creatives or is this a sign of unprofessional habits?
I have been working with creatives for years and the ones who refuse to follow standard business practices such as planning are normally the ones you don't want on your team. Creatives are great but if they don't understand the importance of business planning, resourcing, money management they are not going to be partners... only employees.MG
