Leading or Maintaining?

When the possibility of a negative outcome eclipses the potential for success in your mind, you are living in fear and not walking in faith.

You don’t move mountains in leadership by staying in the trenches of disbelief.  Your leadership is either grounded in layers of approval before you move forward or in the belief that your position demands decision-making that expedites needed change to benefit what’s best for the organization and the people served.

If you find yourself as a leader operating within layers of self-imposed restrictions, you are not leading, you are maintaining.  That maintenance is more about you and greatly limits what you are charged to do as the leader.

Get out of your own way and embrace your promise and potential. Leaders fail in leadership when indecision eclipses reason and responsibility.
