Leadership Is 3D

Leadership Is 3D

Leadership is three-dimensional, just as you are. There are three parts to humans: the mind, the body, and the soul, all working together to produce one you. That is how leadership works. If you examine closely the four words lead, leader, leaders and leadership, you’ll see that each word is contingent on the other. If you really think about it, leadership is the composite output of the definitions of leadership, leadership, leadership and leadership. Simply put: 1) Leadership is only as good as an organization’s leaders, 2) the leaders of the organization can only be as good as their current leader, and 3) a leader is only as effective as their ability to lead others, beginning with him or herself. So the message is simple: leadership starts with the leader in you! If there is no leader, there are no leaders. If there are no leaders, then leadership does not exist.

To maximize leadership potential, one has to be aware that regardless of rank, power, status, or pay, everyone is a leader in some form or fashion.
