Top tips from an expert
All industries need successful leaders. Our Director of Guildhouse Business School, Mr Naresh Sonpar, who has previously worked in the City of London as a Hedge Fund Portfolio Manager and Trader, gave us his top three tips on what makes for a successful business leader!
Have a Strong Vision of what you want to achieve
This can be achieved by setting short, medium and long-term objectives. If you are thinking about studying a particular degree at university for example what are the steps you need to take in order to achieve your target.
Have Passion in what you are doing
Be excited about what you are learning and experiencing. This helps in motivating others in sharing your vision especially when it comes to working in teams.
Embrace Diversity
Listen and work with people from different backgrounds, cultures, socio-economic groups and neurodivergence. When doing group work, you need to collaborate with others who think differently to you. This encourages new ideas and solutions to challenges.
