Tuesday Tip!
Here’s a little Tuesday tip: You can be a leader even if you're not in a manager position. You can be a leader even if you have a small team, if your audience is small. You can be a leader even if you aren’t in a traditional workplace.
Simon Sinek, author and motivational speaker, reminds us “Leadership is a choice, not a rank.” So while we are all tempted to look at our ranks to determine whether or not we are a leader, let’s reimagine what being a leader even means.
People sometimes say “Well, I’m not a leader.” And you are totally a leader if you have influence! If you are in charge of any group of people - small group, children, the list goes on. Even in a family or group of friends - leadership is more of a choice of behavior. A leader is someone who role models a desired behavior, who looks out for fellow team members, and who influences other!
What does leadership mean to you? What does it look like?
