How to become a hero

• Train your observation skills whenever you can. The ability to put yourself in another person’s shoes is becoming increasingly important.
• Support your employees, colleagues and superiors wherever possible. Build up strong and balanced networks within and outside your company. Always do so voluntarily in a friendly manner, without expecting any personal gain in return.
• Be a role model in any work situation. Remember that you are always on stage.
• Always think in a customer-oriented manner. Do everything that your internal and external customers want, and do it well, quickly and with passion. Think about what you could do to please and surprise your clients – and do it.
• Learn to live and deal with the contradictions and uncertainties in life. Consider that many options exist, rather than seeing things in black and white. Work on becoming more flexible, more adaptable and faster.
• Don’t hesitate to make a decision – a bad decision is almost always better than none at all.
