As you build your SFI and TripleClicks business you will learn that being in a “leadership” position is very important. The success of your business depends a lot on the structure and size (number of people) of your down-line teammates.

The easiest way for your teammates to know what to do is for you as their “leader” is to show them the path to take. This is done by you doing what you want your teammates to do.

In other words, you want your teammates

You can lead by example in SFI by sending your valued SFI Affiliates Team Mails in simple and clear plain english, remembering to insert important, relevant and easy to click on SFI links to help show your team how to share in SFI's growth.

Lead your valued SFI Team to duplicate what you have already learnt yourself in reading, understanding and completing the Start, SFI Basics and Launchpad Lessons. Referring your SFI Team to grow their SFI by following SFI Rules of Success especially

The best example you can give them is a page full of badges... starting with Gold Fast Track, Finalist/E365 Champion, at least 1500 VP SO, daily/all time VP streak, results of voting on askSC answers, as well as answering the questions, responses to Forum posts, and the extra activities - Eager Zebra Games, auctions...

When they see your badges, they will want to know how you got them. This is when you can really shine in their minds be explaining - based on questions asked - what you

Lead by example' is a form of leadership in which the team you are leading learns by the examples you have set.

There are other forms of leadership, but at SFI it appears to be a good approach.

In choosing this method of leadership you must do, you must accomplish and you must achieve what you expect of the those you are leading.

Lead by example is not always practical, For example, if you not able to achieve a certain goal for yourself it could hurt you, as those

Your leadership page would be the most effective way to do just that. When you tell your affiliates to play games they need to see that you are doing it - and they see that by going to your leadeship page and seeing all your badges.

You can not tell your affiliates to do something you are not doing. They see what you do and that you are successful and they follow your example.

If you log in once a week - can you tell your affiliates to log in every day? I think not.

Hi Erica,

I think this is a great question and that you have the curiosity to ask it shows that you are most likely already leading by example for your PSAs and CSAs. My answer to your question though is this:

- Do everything for your PSAs and CSAs that you received or would have liked to receive when you first started. Help in every possible way and when you think you have helped enough, look for ways to help more. I realize that in the beginning it is a bit of hand holding

This is a very good question.
I consider that the most important way to demonstrate you lead by example are...the badges.
The badges are telling the story about you and your PSA and CSA will want to understand and to copy you.

-The SFI rank ( Bronze, Silver,...)is telling about your achieved VPs and the balance between Sales VP and Action VP.

-The year joined is telling how long you have been with SFI, about your experience here.

-E365 and Fast Track is

Leading by example is a multi-faceted behavior of the highly successful motivators and business tycoons. They draw others to themselves by building consensus around they values, their objectives, and their agenda.

Leading by example is also the ability to inspire others the impulse to emulate.

As SFI leaders, we demonstrate our leadership qualities through the examples of our positive attitude, our thorough knowledge of the business, our daily actions in building our teams,
