 Today's advice comes from John Linehan, president and CEO of Zoo New England via Entrepreneur: "There's a huge difference between exerting the power inherent in being a CEO and earning respect." When Linehan first started working at Zoo New England, a nonprofit organization working to conserve endangered species, he earned the respect of his employees by doing the dirty work himself — he gave a gorilla CPR once. There is a huge difference between a leader that enters a company at the top and one that enters at the bottom and proving themselves. But if you do get hired as a leader, Lenihan says you can still earn respect. Just make sure you are open-minded and respect your employees. And once you gain respect, be careful with it. "It's a precious resource. It's hard to get it back once you lose it." Want your business advice featured in Instant MBA? Submit your tips to tipoftheday@businessinsider.com.
