How Rejecting These Common Leadership Misconceptions Can Elevate Your Influence and Effectiveness
Here’s one of the worst quotes I’ve ever heard from a leader:
“I’ve never led people who didn’t want to be led.”
Why is it so bad?
Leadership isn’t about:
– Blaming others – Finger-pointing – Playing the victim – Refusing to adapt – Ignoring feedback – Avoiding accountability – Lacking self-awareness – Closing off to new perspectives
The statement sucks. Its a refusal to own ones role.
Leadership is about:
– Influencing – Understanding – Taking responsibility – Leading by example – Embracing challenges – Flexibility and adaptability – Fostering a positive culture – Building trust and relationships – Receiving and applying feedback – Supporting growth and development
Leadership is ownership—embracing challenges, cultivating potential, and guiding with integrity and purpose.
