Do the job yourself
The first lesson I learnt was to learn every task myself and then you get the right to train your employees as a leader.
I started at 16 sticking stickers on cash registers and learning how to canvass door to door. It was the shit kicker job, but I did every job before I felt confident to call myself the leader.
Having done their role before them I knew how to do it and trained them in the best practice, so they knew I wasn’t just a young kid with no experience.
As part of our series about the “Five Things You Need To Be A Highly Effective Leader During Turbulent Times”, we had the pleasure of interviewing Goro Gupta.
Goro Gupta is the head of four companies and about to start his fifth.
The entrepreneur now heads up a team of twelve employees and learning how to be an effective leader has been an ongoing journey for the 40-year-old.
Goro Gupta’s journey to owning more than 35 properties around the world combined with over 20 years in the finance industry, and a genuine desire to make difference led him to establish Ethical Property Investments.
Ethical Property Investments create commercial solutions to social housing problems, which means investors can grow their investments while the most vulnerable members of society can keep a roof over their heads.
