Best Business Leader and

Worst Parent Ever!Strategies to better deal with our Family

• We are used to measuring our

success based on our

professional performance and

by how much money we make

each year.

• And the more money we make

the more successful we feel.

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsIntroduction

• Now if we look very closely

is that always the case?

• What if our Professional Life

has been shining but our

Family Life is a failure, full of

disagreements and harsh

words?

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsImportant Question

• There are many family

misunderstandings and

arguments when they don´t

understand each other well.

• A lot of families now don't get to

know each other too well

because they're too busy.

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsProblem 01 – Family Misunderstandings

• Be with your family whenever

you can and get to know them

better.

• Plan some family time, like, a

movie, or a family game, or

even as little as eating dinner

together.

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsSolution 01 – Understanding your Family.

• My family is always angry or

showing no respect when I share

my opinions and suggestions.

• And I always get stressed when

they try to express their point-of-

views about a specific subject that

I disagree.

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsProblem 02 – Lack of Respect

• We only get respect when we show

respect.

• Avoid being angry or upset when facing a

situation or a different opinion.

• Remember that it is our own positive or

negative behavior that will set our family

parameters and the main grounds for a

nice relationship.

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsSolution 02 – Learning to Respect

• My family doesn't listen to my

advice or just ignore my

concerns.

• And because of that I have to

get really tough and rude when

telling them anything from life

responsibilities to house chores.

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsProblem 03 – Poor Listening Skills

• We need to learn how to listen our

family.

• During the listening process we can

figure out the best approach and

solution to help them.

• Listening is a powerful tool that teaches

everybody to think, to respect and to

love each other.

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsSolution 03 – Learning to Listen

• Our children don’t want to

participate in our weekend lunch or

even our dinner.

• They prefer to watch cable TV and

play with the Internet.

• I always have to turn off the whole

equipment to call their attention.

• It really annoys me.

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsProblem 04 – Lonely Family Meetings

• How many times did you let your

family down because of your

profession?

• Maybe it is time to calm down

and to reach each one

individually to explain them the

importance of having a family

lunch or dinner.

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsSolution 04 – Explain the Importance of the Situation

• It is quite difficult to have a nice

family conversation since

everyone is screaming and

complaining about everything.

• When my family is together our

house is a battlefield.

• I am really sad.

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsProblem 05 – My House is a Battlefield

• We should never scream or fight

against our family members since it

can damage and tear any relationship

apart and we will regret it.

• And we should never waste energy

with a negative approach.

• Let´s treasure the time we have with

them because we can't get it back.

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsSolution 05 – Making Peace not War!

• My family is aware of their

responsibilities but they

insist in not helping me.

• And I need to get rough

when asking them to clean

dishes or just to organize

their rooms.

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsProblem 06 – Lazy Family

• Developing activities together is a

fantastic way to teach our family

about rights and obligations.

• Doing little things such as holding

the door for them, or helping

someone with homework is a way

to say I love you and I really care.

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsSolution 07 – Learning to Help

• There seems to be a growing

tendency to shift family

responsibilities to outside influences,

such as the school and society.

• Important as these outward

influences are, they never can take

the place of the influence of the

mother and the father.

Best Leaders and Worst ParentsImportant – Our Family Approach Today

• Our Family is an important part of

our life and we need to have a

strong commitment to keep them

well.

• Someone asked if professional

success can compensate for

failure in the home. And the

answer to that would be "no“!
