IMAGE: GETTY IMAGES     In a survey, top executive headhunters said every leader needs to be a strategic thinker, technologically savvy, and a team player.   Do you have what it takes to run your company successfully?   Boris Groysberg, a professor of business administration at Harvard Business School, surveyed senior search consultants at a global executive-placement firm to find out what the headhunters are looking for in leaders.   The top requirement, Groysberg writes in Harvard Business Review, is a strong ability tolead. It's an obvious trait, but the survey respondents specified different types of leadership that may be the most useful: "inspirational leadership," "leadership in a non-authoritarian manner that works with today's executive talent," "take-charge leadership," "leadership balanced with authenticity, respect for others, and trust building," and "strategic leadership."   The style of leadership required depends on the company's specific needs, the consultants told Groysberg. If a company has suffered problems with ethics, then an ethical leader is sought; if a company needs to be saved from financial ruin, then a "visionary" leader is needed.   Read on to find out the other skills the survey found today's leaders require.   1. A capacity to think and act strategically   The respondents ranked "strategic foresight," or the ability to think strategically in a global business setting, as the second-most important skill a leader needs to have. "One consultant stressed the ability to 'set the strategic direction' for the organization; another equated strategic thinking with 'integrative leadership,'" Groysberg writes. "Others emphasized that strategic thinking also calls for the ability to execute a vision, which one respondent called 'operating savvy' and another defined as 'a high standard in execution.'"   2. Tech savvy   Groysberg's survey found that technology skills and technical literacy are the third-most required skills for leaders. "A C-level executive needs to understand how technology is impacting their organization and how to exploit technology," one respondent told Groysberg. Other headhunters, he writes, sought leaders with "financial acumen" and "industry-specific content knowledge."   3. The ability to be a team player   The fourth-most important skill according to the survey, Groysberg says, was team- and relationship-building expertise. "A world-class leader must be able to hire and develop an exceptionally strong leadership team--he/she cannot succeed as a brilliant one-person player," a respondent told him. Further, another said, a leader must be "team-oriented, capable of multitasking continuously, leading without rank, resisting stress, ensuring that subordinates do not suffer burnout--and do all of this with a big smile in an open-plan office."   To read all seven of the skills Groysberg's survey identified, click here.   Thanks and regards, ...

Hello all,   I wanted to share with you this great article I found on www.entrepreneur.com. Check it out!   Why Pinterest Is Driving Social Engagement (and How You Can Take Advantage)     Pinterest is leading the way for social growth. In a recent Forbes article, tool ShareThis said “Pinners,” or Pinterest users, had more share activity than Facebook or Twitter users in 2013.   Key to the platform's success is its ability to reach beyond sheer follower numbers to focus on purchase intent and brand engagement. Harnessing the interest of rabid pinners can mean organic brand connection for companies in a way that Facebook, Twitter and other social media outlets can’t match. With the right tools and metrics, businesses have the opportunity to engage with Pinners in a way that does not feel pushy or distracting.   In this video, Noah Abelson, chief executive officer and co-founder of marketing firm Shareroot, shares tips on how companies can better understand Pinterest, and approach the platform in a way that drives interest in their brands.    Complete article: http://www.entrepreneur.com/video/232175#comments   Thanks & regards, ...
