Being Before Doing

Most of us who lead spend a lot of time trying to improve the task-oriented aspects of our leadership. We try to be better vision casters, better communicators, better strategists, and the list goes on and on.

Today I would like to encourage you to devote some mental and emotional energy to who you are, not just what you do. What aspects of your character are positively or negatively affecting your ability to influence and impact those you are leading? Make a list and take time to reflect on it.

What is one thing you can do today to work on "being?" Who is someone you can tell who will hold you accountable? Have a great weekend!
