What Businesses Can Learn from St. Patrick’s Leadership Style 1. Forgive. Patrick’s only intention was to forgive; to forgive all those who had done harm, and to teach others how to forgive and lead by example. 2. Perseverance. Through perseverance Patrick converted noblemen, royals, and women into life of conversion. He dedicated his love and patience into working with the unfree and the poor. 3. Carve Your Own Path. During his time in Ireland, Patrick Dempsey developed 450 leaders among Irish communities, and helped establish 300 churches. He rose to meet his challenge. He taught compassion, patience and how to carve your own path, even among resistance. 4. Leaders are not born into this world; they rise up to meet the challenge. 5. Strength. It takes strength; strength to make difficult choices in crisis situations, strength to be a team player, strength to recognize you may not always have all the answers, and the strength to do what’s best for your team and your business. 6. Empathy. An effective leader also has to have empathy; the ability to put yourself in someone else’s shoes. Without empathy, you can’t build trust; without trust, you will never be able to get the best effort from your employees. 7. Trust your gut. More and more leaders are learning the value of using their intuition and trusting their gut when making decisions. freedmaxickcareers/blog/what-businesses-can-learn-from-st-patricks-leadership-style/
