30 Second Leadership Boost

Leadership isn't about pleasantries and friendships. It isn't about saying the right thing to convince someone to agreeing with you. It isn't about being the coolest person around or the most important person in the room.

Leadership is being able to communicate the vision, objective or mission so well that that you team can see the picture exactly the way you do, from 50,000 feet. Leadership is being able to take that picture and use it to raise the teams passion, effectiveness and abilities so high that even the thought of not succeeding is erased.

Leadership doesn't define something you do, its defines the person you are. Don't just do leadership, be leadership.

As 2008 starts, set the your goals for the year, make sure they are measurable, attainable and find someone to share them with that can hold you accountable.

God bless.
