Leader…One Who Willingly Gives His Strength to Others

Leaders who consistently achieve positive organizational growth and improvement have the innate talent of cultivating more leaders. Tom Peters said it best, “Leaders don’t create followers, they create more leaders.” Such leaders as he describes possess the following key attributes.

Selfless

No self-serving ambition or desire to be more than or elevated above any other…

Open minded

Fearless in listening to the ideas and possibilities presented by others, especially those challenging the present norms…

Heart of Humility

Exemplifies through action that no “one” is perceived to be or treated as more important  – regardless of title, no title, or role…

Servant of the Higher Purpose

Seizes the opportunities every day, when presented, to give something to someone else – time, care, resources, opportunity…

Cultivator of Talent

Instinctively and unselfishly shares knowledge and talents to cultivate the untapped leader potential observed in others…

Creating circles of safety through our leadership attributes enables every person in our employ to become and deliver their very best.  

“Power isn’t control at all — power is strength, and giving that strength to others. A leader isn’t someone who forces others to make him stronger; a leader is someone willing to give his strength to others that they may have the strength to stand on their own.”  –Beth Revis

Happy Friday…Go and ELEVATE the leaders entrusted to your care…
