July 10, 2014 What Does It Mean To Be A Leader?
I stumbled upon a great blog post this week by life coach Chris LoCurto on what leadership is, and what it is not. As I’ve discussed before, effective leadership depends on support, compassion, and trust, not on strict rules or fear tactics.
According to LoCurto, leadership is:
–not a title
–not a dictatorship
–not selfish
–not a blame game
Okay, so that’s what leadership isn’t. What about what it is? LoCurto says leadership is:
-Selfless
-Visionary
-Accountable
-Rewarding
What are good descriptors of leadership that come to mind for you? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
Have a great week!
