The Why
After 25 years in the business world, including more than 11 years as a nonprofit leader, seven years as an entrepreneur, and 100% of the time working with people, I’ve crystallized the bottom-line issue across the spectrum: Houston, we have a leadership problem. Too often, there is misalignment, inconsistency, and overall lack of clarity in message and mission. And frustration generally ensues.
Leadership sets the tone and direction of those on the front line, as well as across the whole organization. Leaders that are teachable and humble in their approach and interactions with others: can ask and receive help when needed; will recognize and show preference to those who they are called to lead/serve; and can move forward when difficult decisions are necessary.
A large component of leadership is garnering buy-in and sparking action, ultimately encouraging others to impact their respective spheres of influence. After all, as leaders we are either driving progress or we are driving the problem.
