Today's #leadership quote

"We rise by lifting others" Robert Ingersoll

Today's quote is a really short one just 5 words but they pack a big meaning. Leadership is much more than commanding which is necessary at times especially in a crisis. One of the foremost responsibilities of leader is taking care of those within our charge. It can be easy to forget this and take charge of those within our care instead. Just a simple rearrangement of words but the meaning and the results are totally different. Taking care of those whom we are in charge of means that we focus on them as a first priority. We are then compelled to help elicit the greatness that resides within them so that they can become that which they are capable of being and perhaps don't even know themselves. It requires us to subjugate our ego to put the needs of others first. Leaders are called to develop future leaders. It is one of the fundamental requirements to be a leader. That requirement cannot be fulfilled if we put ourselves and our desires above those that we are responsible for. We improve our ability to get things done by raising the confidence and competence of those around us. By developing future leaders and helping others discover and manifest their greatness, we can have the impact we desire.
