KAREN ELKIN LEADERSHIP

"Leading is the way we help move people, including ourselves, into action. The question is not whether or not we are leaders, but how well we lead."

~iPEC Coaching

 

Close your eyes and bring to mind someone in a position of leadership. Who is this person? What makes him or her a leader?

 

Did you think of yourself? Why or why not?

 

Some leaders inspire us, some may be fearsome or worse, and some may not give us much to think about at all. The greatest leaders are, in many ways, just like everyone else – they wake up every day, choose what to eat and wear, communicate with the people they encounter, experience successes and challenges, and make choices about how to spend their time and energy.

 

So yes! We lead ourselves every day! What makes us get up in the morning? Sure, we may have a crying baby to attend to, or a meeting to attend, or we may simply be hungry and want breakfast. But the point is that somehow, we motivate ourselves to get up to face whatever responsibility, challenge, or excitement is on the schedule for the day.
