Family leadership : Becoming a successful and effective parent leader

How to build a happy family

 Use positive communication in your family to be a successful parent leader.

When you use positive communication with your children, you tend to get better results. Yelling creates a negative reaction with your children and causes us to become out of control. Once we as the parent are out of control, the child becomes out of control. A real leader has the ability to communicate to anybody to take positive action. An effective leader has the tools to respond instead of reacting to a situation. When you respond instead of react, you pause and think about what you’re going to say or do. This is much more effective than just impulsively reacting. Think about what you’re going to ask of your child and give them choices. This puts the responsibility and the consequences into their hands.

 View problems as opportunities.

I don’t know a family on this Earth that doesn’t experience “problems.” One way to view problems as opportunities is to view change as a natural part of life. Your perspective and attitude regarding change will largely determine how well you deal with it. In addition, we want to develop our problem solving skills. The more problems we solve, the more confidence we have in our ability to solve problems, and the better we become at quickly generating solutions to challenges that come up in life. Instead of going into stress mode when problems arise, jump into problem solving mode.



A great parent leader practices emotional intelligence.

Emotional intelligence is the ability to identify, assess, manage, and control the emotions of one’s self. To practice emotional intelligence, one must recognize and develop the five competencies of emotional intelligence – self-awareness, intelligently managing our emotions, motivation, empathy, and social skills. At the same time, as parents, we must provide opportunities for our children to learn these same skills. Emotional intelligence is one of the greatest predictors of success in people today, over intelligence and education.

 Maintaining balance within your family is important.

You may become stressed if your family doesn’t have balance. It may be difficult to cope with problems that occur. Try to avoid over committing your life. Make sure you take time to be together as a family, develop your relationships, and align your life with your vision and family values.

 Raise your kids to do great things and inspire others.

John Quincy Adams said, “If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.” How does your leadership as a parent let your children do these things? Help your children to be the best that they can be and in the process you may just become the best parent you can be.
Inspire children to do something great in life
