Effective leadership is all about creating a workplace where all employees feel welcome and respected. This not only creates a positive atmosphere but also makes your organization more innovative, productive, and enjoyable to work in. Maria Chamberlain, a successful business owner and entrepreneur, embodies these values in Acuity Total Solutions.

As a female minority in a male-dominated industry, Maria has faced numerous challenges but has never let that hold her back. With her determination and drive, Maria has built a thriving company that is known for its excellence and professionalism.

In a recent interview, Maria shared some valuable insights on leadership and what it takes to be a successful leader.

When asked about the leader that has influenced her the most, she cites Abraham Lincoln as an inspiration.

“His leadership style and philosophy, which emphasized perseverance, commitment, and hard work while staying true to one’s convictions and moral standards, have greatly influenced my approach to professional situations.”

She also shared some of her biggest learning experiences as a leader. “One of my biggest learning experiences as a leader was realizing that trying to do everything alone was a mistake. I used to be very hands-on and controlling, but as I matured as a leader, I discovered the value of delegation and trust in others,” she says.

She also emphasizes the importance of emotional intelligence, a leadership behavior that she is cultivating to build trust and confidence in her team.

Maria’s journey as a leader offers valuable lessons for anyone looking to build a successful organization.

As she notes, being a successful leader is not just about setting a vision and guiding the team towards it but also about having the emotional intelligence and interpersonal skills to connect with each team member on a personal level.
