Hold on--this is not required reading!
I just happen to find leadership to be an intriguing subject that impacts almost every aspect of our lives. It is especially impactful in work settings, in volunteer organizations, in schools, and of course in government. But it even has powerful effects in less formal settings like home and worship.
Leadership is very simple in some respects but complex in others. What works in one setting doesn't necessarily work in another. It seems to come naturally for some and others work very hard at leading, with little success.
I have had the opportunity to formally learn about leadership in my graduate studies, but I have also had the opportunity to learn both as a follower and leader. I have sat in the CEO chair in entrepreneurial organizations, and served in leadership roles in other settings. I have succeeded and I have failed. Experience on a foundation of theory can be a powerful teacher.
This blog will explore the day to day challenges of leadership in the context of today's dynamic and challenging environment.
Join me in this exploration, ask questions and let's learn together.
