Leaders in the world today are hit with many curve balls from every angle, from worldwide economic and social issues to internal business problems. The hard facts are that most businesses fail within their first few years, which is not always due to bad leadership.

In these situations, leaders need to make a comeback to regain their former influence. Here is how to do it!

Build Trust

Without the trust of your followers and those around you, you have nothing. The first and most crucial step in rebuilding yourself as a leader is to build trust with those around you. Do this by showing honesty, integrity, and tidying up around you.

Become Ready To Survive

The best leaders are ready to survive any obstacle thrown at them. They save up cash and have contingency plans to keep them afloat even in the roughest of tides. This all comes down to planning and preparation. Go back to basics and plan for every outcome to ensure you are sufficiently prepared.

Always Working On Culture

Building a good company culture is what will set you apart from those around you! However, unlike many think, building a culture is consistent and always on. As a leader, you need to be always on and focused on creating a great environment for those around you. It's all about consistency. You cannot have a good culture today and a bad one tomorrow.

Make Your People Feel Safe

We all want to feel safe. It's part of our biology, even though we no longer have to fight off wildcats every night. Understand what psychological safety is, how it affects those around you, and how you can make your people feel safe as safe people will work harder and better than those in fight or flight mode.

While coming back as a leader is undoubtedly no easy task, it is also not impossible. By building trust, planning and preparing to survive, working on your culture, and ensuring everyone feels safe, you can rebuild yourself in no time!
