 When we visualize leaders, we often think of strength, both physical and moral. We also want leaders who can communicate clearly and get the mission done. A friend has a learning blog and focuses much of his work on leaders and humility. This caused me to reflect on the value of humility. When you're first establishing credibility within a profession, you have to demonstrate that you're capable and that you can be a team player. You must contribute, but then balance how you show that you contributed. A humble leader focuses their team by paying attention not just to the results, but how the team achieves their results. Leaders can ask questions such as is the team cohesive? Does everyone have an opportunity to contribute? Julian Stodd's learning blog includes a lot of his writing on humility and leadership. My favorite line so far is that humility may be a light shown on our actions. Lead well this week.
