Great leadership requires wisdom and as such one can not lead effectively without continuing to expand his/her knowledge and know-how in his/her area of leadership and interest.
As this is true, then it stands to reason that when dealing with a team, a group or organization we can’t expect the other group members to exceed what we’re willing to invest in making our own selves better.
Simply put, if we’re not pushing to increase our own knowledge, education and personal skillsets to make our own self better, then we would be two kinds of crazy and three kinds of foolish to expect others around us to do any different.
I realize that this may be a very sobering reality for many so-called leaders out there in eye or ear-shot of this message but just remember that it’s never too late to start making it GREAT.
So if this shoe fits, don’t be afraid to swallow some pride and wear it as you commit to make a slight change in your own personal development regimen today that could definitely make a difference in your group’s outcome and results tomorrow. After all, groups only move at the speed and pace of their leaders. They’re watching you….. 🙂
So, let’s all keep leaning forward in our attempt to Make it GREAT!
GREAT WEEKEND!!!
