There is a saying that to be a good leader, one has to be a good follower first.

In SFI's duplication as one of its methodologies, we become followers first by doing what our sponsors and training packages suggest us to do. Thus, in SFI one does not have to be born a leader or born with a silver platter to be successful.

Dedication, patience, perseverance, persistence, and PASSION for SFI I think makes one a leader over being born as one.

But I guess the most important

Hi Gabriela,

Leadership scares a lot of us but when you get down to it it has two key parts that each of us can handle.

The first critical part is mental attitude. A leader is someone who says they are a leader. You are a leader if you say and believe you are a leader and anyone can do that. It always fascinates me that whenever an issue crops up you will always find one or two people who stand up and begin to organise the others. No-one asks them to they just do. It could be

You are virtually led by hand and shown a vast array of guidelines:
You are told how to recruit potential affiliates, how to nurture them to do what you do and reap the benefits of duplication.

Great question. I will give you 7 easy steps on how to become team leader.

1.Listen to others. Even though you are the team leader and you make the decisions, you should always ask people what their opinion is. Try to incorporate them whenever it's feasible. You aren't a dictator.

2.Take in others' suggestions. When someone gives you an idea, work on it. Think of how you can improve on it. A good leader is one that listens and not just talks. Show the team you are flexible to

How can you be an SFI Team Leader if you're not a born leader?

Leaders are not born, they’re developed. Everyone is unique. And because you are so unique, you can develop those special talents and abilities you have to fulfill your purpose and destiny and become the leader you were meant to be.

In SFI we are all given equal chance to be one, by making it easy for us to achieve the first rank of leadership- that of becoming Executive Affiliate.

The title itself

The first thing you will want to do is learn all you can in the first months. Learning where to find answers is
very important, too.

It is possible to be a team leader as you progress through the steps and follow instructions. The saying goes, SFI is not rocket
science! If you do not know what to say or do -

The words are all in the program. Use them.

The instructions are in the program. Follow them.

The steps are in the program.

There is a difference between actual physical leadership and online leadership because you will not be dealing with people face to face.

In SFI you need at least three qualifications to be a Team Leader and being a born leader is not one of them. Here's what you need to be Team Leader at SFI even if you are not a born leader.

1. You become leader with what you know - You must have a thorough knowledge of SFI/TripleClick's business process. You need the knowledge to be an awesome
