It's Not About You!

As a leader sometimes we are struck with a false reality that everything is for our glory, not for the glory of the team, or the purpose we are striving for. We tend to believe that if not for ourselves success would not be possible, but as I had earlier stated, this is untrue.

A good leader should not be caught up in the WIFM (what's in it for me), but in doing what's right, coaching up their team members, and leaving a legacy of good character. Unfortunately, in the business world this point of view is unpopular, but after your career has ended what will be said of you? Were you fair, honest, humble, or are there less desirable words to describe your character?

Take a look at yourself today! Remember that leadership is a way of life!
