On 29 October 2015, the WEGVISOR® Leadership Event took place in Chemnitz.
Entrepreneurs and leaders from very different areas of society met at the tables – and the conversations soon turned to what makes good leadership.
The highlight was Titus Lindl's talk on John C. Maxwell's 5 Levels of Leadership.
Insight from the talk · Listening opens doors
On Level 2, listening is the most important tool. Seeking to understand before being understood sends a clear message: you matter to me. Out of this grows the permission to address uncomfortable things later – criticism, change, high expectations. Leaders who don't listen never earn that permission.
Takeaway: Those who listen earn the right to be heard.
A heartfelt thank-you to the WEGVISOR® team, to all the hosts who filled their tables and to every guest who helped shape this evening. Thanks also to the Hotel an der Oper in Chemnitz for their hospitality.
