Leadership
Leadership is an analog job in a digital world.
It is courage to adjust mistakes, vision to welcome change and
confidence to stay out of step when everyone else is marching to the
wrong tune. The purpose of a leader is to grow more leaders. We rise
higher and see further standing not only on the strong shoulders of
those who have gone before us, but on the shoulders of those who are
currently under our command, supporting us and following our lead.
Standing in the front of a room and calling yourself a leader, no
more makes you a leader than standing in the middle of a garage makes
you a truck. Leading others begins when we lead and grow ourselves as
lifelong learners. Remember,
Learners retain:
10 percent of what they read;
20 percent of what they hear;
30 percent of what they see;
50 percent of what they see and hear;
70 percent of what they write and say;
90 percent of what they write, say and do.
So . . . stop, look, listen, copy it down, share it and do it!
