This month’s leadership quote:
“Becoming a leader is synonymous with becoming yourself. It is precisely that simple, and it is also that difficult.”
–Warren Bennis
The challenge of course is gaining this self-awareness.
- Identifying our genius
- Learning how we show up to others and the impact we have
- Learning when to lead from the front of the room and when to lead from the back
Whether we have been in a leadership role for a long time, or the experience is more recent, each day is an opportunity to move toward this simple, yet difficult, goal.
One of the great benefits of Vistage private advisory boards is the opportunity to learn all these things from our peers. We can then take what we learn back into our organizations and become the best version of ourselves.
