Summary on why Mrs Anastasia Liew is a Successful Leader to Us
In conclusion, I feel that Mrs Anastasia Liew is a very successful leader as she is able to start her own business from scratch with just the knowledge of how to bake cakes and kueh in the beginning. Something must be very different in her cakes and kueh that allow people from all over Asia to keep coming back for more and today, it became a popular pastry brand in Singapore. Even though many people also know how to bake, they do not seem to be able to make it as successful as Mrs Liew. I admire her perseverance and hard work from all the tough situations that she had been through. Putting myself in that situation, I would have gave up and blame myself for being too ambitious. However, Mrs Liew is very persistent and insists to continue what she has been doing. She is clearly passionate about her job and takes pride in her products. Successful leaders should have great passion in things that they do so as to constantly motivate themselves to improve and strives on.
Furthermore, I also feel that a successful leader should have high emotional intelligence as maintaining a strong relationship with the staffs in the company is important. They play in part in building the brand and they should be given recognition for the effort that they have put in during every day’s work. Even though they are being paid to work, they must have the motivation to report for work. A successful leader would create rapport with employees to ensure that they are happy and content working under him or her. Mrs Liew has also fulfilled this criterion as a successful leader as she is constantly thinking of her employees’ welfare, putting that under one of her key values.
If I were to have a chance, I would like to work under guidance and personally experience her leadership.
