What does leadership look like to you?

The Question:

What does leadership look like to you?

The Insight

There are a lot of answers to this question, but a pillar answer from course participants tends to be ‘Doing what you say you are going to do.’ AND that is not always possible. However, you can always be responsible for it.


The Practice

When we can’t be our words as a leader, we can still be responsible for it.

That might look like, “I said I was doing X by Friday, and it will not be. It will be done by Tuesday.”, rather than stepping over it.
