1. The integrity of the person creating the trust

Thirty-fourth President of the United States Dwight D. Eisenhower said: "To be a leader, a person must have followers. To find followers, a person must have the confidence. So, the most important of the qualities required, the undisputed leader of the integrity of the individual. Without it can not be a real success no matter where it was - in a work crew on the football field, in an army or a business office. If the comrades will find that you are a liar, if they find that you lack the honesty and integrity of the person, then you are doomed to failure. The words and deeds of a person should not differ from each other. Therefore, the main necessity - is the wholeness of personality and high goal "*

As suggested by Peter Bruun, a Dutch expert in the field of management, the power of The handle-

the driver is not in the rule head over subordinates, and thus the ability of the chief influence on subordinates that they have accepted and acknowledged his supremacy. These relationships Brune calls "agreement" of subordinate acquiesce considered the chief supervisor, who in turn offers them a style of leadership that subordinates are willing to accept.

What is the essence of the theory Brune? Quite simply, the manager must establish and maintain an atmosphere of mutual trust. How often are people whose position is related to leadership, trying to convince people to obey by external, institutional funds and appeal to the status, position, the organization's charter. But alas - such leaders never fail to achieve any sustainable positive change. They try to solve the problem by using external means (for example, by making changes to rules and regulations), then the problem is inside them. They lack the integrity of the individual, and therefore lacks the authority.

In a study conducted by researchers from Carnegie - Mellon University, found that of the four hundred managers surveyed, only 45 percent trust their top management, and a third of those surveyed did not trust his immediate superiors. Each organization must be at least someone who would change his leadership the situation *.

Keyvitt Robert said: "If my employees understand me, I command their attention. If they trust me, I have conquered their actions. " To have the authority necessary for successful leadership, a man little name plate on the door post of his office. He needs the confidence of those who go after him.

 

2. The integrity of the individual has a huge potential impact

As the philosopher Emerson, "every great organization - the extended shadow of one single man, whose character determines the character of the entire organization." These words could coincide with a statement of the American actor, comedian and writer Will Rogers: "The mind people change

observation and not arguments ". People do what they see.

In one study, which involved 1,300 senior executives, the integrity of the individual has been named the most essential quality for success in business. Proposed by researchers from the sixteen personality traits necessary to maximize the leadership, 71 percent of respondents put the integrity of the person in the first place *.

What a pity that the walls of your own home, we often forget about the great importance of the integrity of the individual. In the book, R. Sproul, "Answers to objections" tells the story of a Jewish boy who lived many years ago in Germany. The boy loved his father and admired him. My father was a deeply religious man, and the life of the whole family was imbued with religious traditions, rituals and customs. The whole family, led by his father, regularly attended services at the synagogue.

But it so happened that the family moved to another city, where there was a synagogue, but was

After a while, the young man went to England to study. Day after day he sat in the reading room of the British Museum. The young man wrote a book in which he wanted to express a fundamentally new world - the doctrine designed to change the world. Religion he called "the opium of the people" and urged his followers to a life without God. His ideas were the basis of the state ideology of many countries, whose populations together make up about half of all humanity. This young man was Karl Marx, the founder of the communist movement. The act of his father, which made it possible to destroy their value system, as a result had a profound effect on her story XX (and perhaps not only XX) century.
