Leadership is in Every One of Us
Some CEOs have it and others do not. Office managers and plumbers express leadership better than their bosses at times. If it isn’t a function of title or hierarchical position, what is the key to leadership? It is a way of being. Sometimes we experience this way of being and sometimes we don’t. But we know that it is in every one of us. And we can intentionally develop a leadership way of being – if we are willing to acknowledge our unique talents and risk expressing them.
Our yearlong leadership program involves a process of self-selection that invites those who are willing to uncover their potential as leaders to step up…to explore their strengths and weaknesses…to stand up for their core values…and to discover the amazing strength in their own hearts. Recently we launched a new journey with twelve people willing to take this challenge. Their ages ranged from twenty-something to fifty-something. There were executives and mid-level managers. Corporations, non-profits, and government were all represented. One person managed herself and another person managed a weekly $2.5 million payroll.
They were very different on the outside, but on the inside they were the same. They all had strong, beautiful hearts longing for purpose and contribution. They all were open to the possibility of deepening their spiritual connection in their own unique way. They were all willing to be vulnerable and authentic in a room of people they had just met. And they were rewarded for taking this journey in a profound way. They discovered that leadership is, indeed, in every one of us.
