Leadership and Loyalty.
A good leader is a loyal one. And not just in that specific aspect of their lives. They are loyal in every way possible in each part of their lives.
I was watching a TED talk about Leadership today. The speaker talks about being an example. Leadership is an everyday thing. He tells a story about how a girl came up to him at his college graduation and said that he changed her life. What he did wasn’t even something most would consider leadership. He had only ever talked to her that one time. But his example and his ACTIONS were what inspired her to stay in college.
He was loyal in what he did. He signed up for college and he continued to do it until he completed it. He was a member of a charity board and he continues to participate in that charity today.
Leadership is about changing lives. Had he not been loyal in what he did he wouldn’t have been that LEADER for her to look up to.
Leaders are examples. They don’t have to be a president or CEO. They don’t have to be a chairman or manager. It can be anybody. Anybody who is willing to be an example of loyalty.
