Leadership

Ive been asked many times "How do you *teach* leadership?"

I'm here to clear something up. Im not a teacher. I am a mentor and a coach. Leadership is something that must be inspired. Inspiration requires being an example. My job is to inspire these incredible students to be leaders. And thats scary when I think about it. I constantly ask myself, "Do I measure up?" Whether or not I do or don't isn't up to me to decide. Its up to the students.

Buuuut anyway, my point in writing this was to share a few words I try to recite to the students every so often. I love these words and think they embrace most everything needed for personal leadership.

Compassion. Courage. Integrity. Vision. Details. Hard Work. Success.
