TrainingBriefs® The Leadership Difference

Leading others starts with your own values. The biggest difference between leaders and non-leaders is a leader’s level of self-awareness — a leader knows who they are. Leaders are hyper-aware of what’s important to them — they can put a name to their core values.

Because a leader knows their core personal values, they know they want to go to a better place, a world where their values are fully realized. Since they can’t get to that better place all by themselves — it’s too big a trip — they need to convince others on the value of going there, too.
