“Oh behave!”

The bottom line: Leadership begins with your behavior.

A leader who who tells you the right thing to do is not exercising the same strength of the leader who who shows others how to live and work by example. The leader who shows instead of tells are is exponentially more powerful and impactful.

It turns out that people gravitate toward the standard a leader sets, not the standard a leader requests.

If your organization, leaders, managers, teams, and individuals are not effecting the change, growth, or forward movement you hope for, there is bad news and good news.

The bad news is that you likely play a significant factor in that unwanted equation.

The good news is that changing the directional current of your organizations effectiveness starts with your own behaviors. You do have choice and influence so show the away!
