4. Put the team’s success before personal success
5. Submit and line-up your vision with your leader’s vision
6. Don’t cause your leader problems by doing stupid things
7. Bring your leader solutions and not just problems
8. Work yourself out of a job by developing others
9. Work hard so your leader never questions your work ethic
10. Have a positive attitude
11. Produce results that are evident
12. Ask your leader if there is anything you can do to move the organization forward
13. When you think your leader is making a bad decision, tell them before they go public, not after they go public
14. Share your great thoughts and ideas on how to move the organization forward
15. When your opinions and thoughts don’t get implemented, don’t get upset but instead support the decision privately and publicly
16. Manage your personal life well
