This week we are celebrating great leaders who make a difference. Leaders who drive results while focusing on people. Leaders who balance profit with planet and make an impact not just today, but with an eye on the future.
Each day as we highlight the values of great leadership, we encourage you to tag a leader who inspired you in the comments below or visit our Facebook page and tag them or share our leadership snapshots with them to send them the recognition they deserve!
Leadership Manifesto #1 – Be Present
How many times do you find yourself in meeting, drifting to look at your blinking phone? Or answering calls while in the middle of your monthly 1:1 update meetings? Or flipping between email, to project to-do’s, to responding to questions?
“In the age of distraction, great leaders know how to focus & get the best out of their team and themselves”. Tweet This!
Being present as a leader is about being focused on the person or task at hand. It’s about putting 100% of yourself into the work that you’re doing. It’s about maximizing your own output by giving what your working on or who you’re working with, your absolute ‘all’.
Leaders who are present give 100% of their attention to what matters. Now. In this moment. Who do you know who leads from the ‘now’.
