Be a doer not an expert
Everyone can't be an expert and one doesn't essentially need to be an expert to achieve success. In fact, there is no dearth of experts.
One just needs to put in hard work to bring a positive change.
Be open
No matter how important a position one holds, one must always be open to open to new suggestions. The best form of advice may come from the person working at the lowest stratum of a company.
Always acknowledge
Money is an incentive, no doubt but the biggest form of reward for any worker happens to be acknowledgement. Timely appreciation can go a long way in inspiring someone to do better than the best.
Be a good man manager
One must possess the tact to choose the right people for the right project. Someone who fails miserably at understanding a computer programme may show amazing skills at resolving a complicated puzzle of accounting.
A good man manager knows who is good at what.
