Leading the way is all about making the right choices and decisions in our lives and ensuring that our actions and words are in sync.
Inspiring a shared vision involves connecting with the people you lead and influence in order to communicate a vision that is shared and also heard, received, understood, and incorporated into their lives and everyday tasks.
Creating positive change involves:
- Challenging the process
- Asking the right questions
- Conquering limiting beliefs
- Being a part of the solution vs. part of the problem
Activating the performance of others involves effectively delegating to others and creating operating principles for effective teamwork.
Being resilient involves possibility thinking when setbacks and challenges occur.
