- Skill
set: Failing to organize will often lead to chaos or, at the very least, an
increase in stress levels. This occurs as you attempt to make sense of
everything that surrounds you for the sake of making life easier. That’s why
strong organizational skills are key to being a smart leader.
- Time
management: Poor Time management is at the root of so many issues within a
school or community. As the leader, it’s your responsibility to ensure that
things run like clockwork. This is only possible by having a firm understanding
of what it is to be organized. Failure in this area will lead to you being
unable to stay on the task at hand. Suddenly, your ability to juggle everything
at once diminishes before you. It won’t take much before it all comes crashing
down, resulting in you being viewed as unreliable.
- Planning:
Planning makes organizing easier, but we are often lacking when it comes to
being able to plan ahead. Again, poor planning leads to dis organization and
puts more pressure on you.
- Maintaining
efficiency: Organization and efficiency go hand in hand. Efficiency leads to
the need for planning as the smoother something runs, the fewer problems you
encounter. Being efficient also allows you to know where you are in project at
any moment. This is due to you having organized things to such an extent that
you are able to foresee problems before they occur. Remember that efficiency
and your ability to identify issues, work in unison. If you fail to be
organized, then it is impossible for this to happen.
