Can we trust a leader who doesn’t exercise?

Leaders are described as such because of their wisdom, experience, and courage.

How wise is it to neglect our health?

And how courageous is it to not put up a fight?

Letting go may be the only way to enlightened leadership

Letting go may be the only way to enlightened leadership.

Many folks are great managers, managing things, projects, teams.

Then there’s this notion of leading people, not managing them – but leading them to a place where they’ve never been before.

And then the process begins – to establish a consistent, new normal and improve upon that – what was once viewed as impossible.

The key is removing any barrier inhibiting our complete surrender to any personal agenda.

This is a battle over self first, before it will work to transform business.

Leadership is hard and involves a ton of change

Leadership. We all want to work for great leaders, yet they’re rare. This makes for long days.

We all wish our politicians were great, but alas, it often seems like a comedy of errors. This makes for a long four years.

How often do we act on our own desire to live with great personal leadership? This makes for a long, probably more-mediocre-then-we’d-like life.

Dear Nuwanda, please tell us how you really feel about the accusations

A fictional (probably) story that could happen, or is happening now, in any company, anywhere in the world…

Dear fearless new leader, welcome back as our company’s alpha dog. You’ve come a long way in the decade you’ve been gone. Extraordinarily impressive. Congratulations.

Those antiquated astonishing things we’re still doing that have you shaking your head and asking, “What the?“, yeah, me too.

Then there’s the issue of why are our employees still doing the same things the same way?

That’s a great question for your leadership council, coincidentally with the same leader at the top since you left.

One can’t help but wonder why our leadership (for the past decade) isn’t apologizing for allowing it to happen and for falsely thinking we can’t change.

This is were we are embarrassed (and sad) for them.

Please don’t tolerate insidious innuendoes about inabilities.

Please build up your team so they can build up the front line.
