How Do You Define Leadership?
GOATS 0 CommentsIn researching questions about leadership, I came across a fascinating article by Forbes where some of the most successful people in our generation have defined their version of leadership. https://www.forbes.com/sites/kevinkruse/2013/04/09/what-is-leadership/#361e46115b90
At the core of these statements is that leadership isn’t something that we can all equally define and agree to. It’s a moving target that is appreciated by certain people at certain times depending on what they respect and value. Can you ever really win with everyone as a leader? How do you incorporate cultural humility in a work environment that is globally diverse? Is there a guide on how to handle difficult situations across multiple generations AND multiple groups? Is there a scale in which to define what is right and what is the wrong way to discuss an issue with a colleague? How do we find these answers?
