Developing a Leadership and Service Mentality_ Network Marketing

Another intangible benefit of network marketing is the emphasis on leadership.  The most successful network marketing companies and individuals all speak about leadership and service.  These principles permeate the marketing and recruitment process.  Most sponsors emphasize they are looking for a few good leaders who can see the big picture and are willing to work hard to succeed.  There is also a keen emphasis on serving or helping others to achieve their dreams.  It is often said in the network marketing business that by helping others to achieve their goals, you will achieve your own.

The leadership traits that are emphasized and developed in the network marketing business spill over into other aspects of life.  I have seen dozens of average, everyday people come into the ranks of the organization only to grow and become extraordinary leaders of their own business, communities, churches and other organizations.

 Bywatching and emulating the successful representatives and executives in their own uplines and throughout the organization, network marketers can expedite their own leadership growth and potential in ways that are more difficult in other types of organizations.  There is also an emphasis on service and selflessness.  In network marketing, teamwork is not just a slogan—it is a way of life.  You cannot succeed in the business without help from your team and without helping your team.
