Rob is back with this inspirational episode as he takes you around a few key principles of leadership which are worth sharing, and listening to. Discover how loneliness and leadership are intertwined, how responsibility is intrinsically linked to being a leader and why it takes courage to put your values first.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Life can be lonely at times. Loneliness is not just applicable to the pandemic, there are many aspects of loneliness that are not something to be brushed under the carpet. Loneliness is a tragic thing that is not easily solvable.
- Leaders, whether they acknowledge it or not, probably feel loneliness more than others because by definition they go hand in hand.
- To be the best at something, you cannot get away from the fact that you are first a human being. Being a human being is to get to know yourself, there is nothing greater than being true to yourself. To be true to yourself you have to be aware and know what you are.
- Leadership is intrinsically linked to being responsible, what responsibilities do you have in your line of leadership? Questions you often need to ask yourself are ‘what are my responsibilities?' and ‘Am I meeting these regularly?'. In positions of leadership, you have a responsibility to do certain things and to be certain ways.
- What are the values that are front and centre in your life? Only you can answer that question.
- It takes courage to put your values first. However, in doing so it will mean that you live your life authentically in doing what you believe in.
- The problem with human beings today is that we don't think.
