Welcome to today's solo episode! I spent the last few months
really working through the concepts of what excellence in
leadership means and how it means to practice it daily and the
challenges I would face as I strive to do so. Along the way, I
learned many things, surprisingly that most are inadequately
prepared to functionally operate at a level of excellent leadership
and they don't even know it, because leadership takes work, and I
mean a lot of internal work. Leadership differs fundamentally from
management and it's important to know what that difference is so
that we can strive to attain true leadership, beyond just
management, especially if we care about our role and those we
serve, be it at work, home or in the community. So sit back, tune
in and relax as we discuss this important topic and how we can
create the ecosystems we need to achieve excellence in
leadership.
Namaste,
Andrea
