As a leader you carry the burden of transparency. Transparency is invasive. But it makes us better leaders by revealing our humanity.
Leaders who refuse to listen will eventually be surrounded by people who have nothing helpful to say.
Great leadership is not about making the decision on your own, but owning the decision after it is made.
I hire staff who've been deeply hurt. It softens you to other's hurts. Unhurt leaders are often arrogant know-it-alls.
A Daily Reminder: Seek the PROSPERITY of those you lead, much quicker than you seek any personal PROFIT from leadership!
All leaders r learners. The moment you stop learning, you stop leading. I learn as much as I can, from as many as I can, as often as I can.
