What is Leadership and What Are Your Challenges

This past weekend I was re-reading the book by Jim Collins, Beyond Entrepreneurship 2.0, Pondering the question, what is leadership? I love Jim Collins definition.

“Leadership is the art of getting people to want to do what must be done.”

Notice three things about this definition. First, as a leader, it’s your responsibility to figure out what must be done. Second, it’s not about getting people to do what must be done, but about getting them to want to do it. Third, it’s not a science, it’s an art.

Today, I want us to focus on the leadership challenges that we’re currently facing. Every one of us has challenges. Everyone! So take a moment to pause and reflect:

Where are you most stuck? Is it a lack of information, motivation, direction, or courage?

Where do you want to thrive, not merely survive?

Where do you want to go?

Why do you want to go there?

Who do you want to go with?

Again, what are your leadership challenges?
