What a great opening statement for 2025! In the first episode of the Transformational Leader for this year, Adam Quiney talks about this essential aspect of your journey in leadership. The journey of developing yourself as a leader through the experience of being with someone whose leadership is genuinely something they've worked on and spent time honing.
When you work with a leader who has been managed for many years, the first thing you will see is their wisdom, skill, and capacity for leadership. You will hold them up in high regard and set aside yourself in honor of them.
You will be glamoured by this experience, and you will stop seeing your leaders as human doing their best, but more special than that. The complication of this is once you trust your leaders fully, it will swing to the other side and just go with yourself.
