We are going Old School in this edition of 5 for Leadership. Every post will be from the past few years, but chosen because of the fundamental truths being shared. Take a look back and see what you can apply at a principle level today.
It’s Not the CEO, It’s the Leadership Strategy That Matters “Let’s face it. CEOs come and go. But leadership, if developed in a comprehensive way, endures.” Josh Bersin shares four critical principles towards how a well developed leadership culture can sustain any leadership change.
What Makes a Leader? This is a classic article by Daniel Goleman. “IQ and technical skills are important, but emotional intelligence is the sine qua non of leadership.”
The Most Successful Leaders Do 15 Things Automatically, Every Day “If you are looking to advance your career into a leadership capacity and / or already assume leadership responsibilities – here are 15 things you must do automatically, every day, to be a successful leader in the workplace.” This comes from Glenn Llopis by way of Forbes.
What Makes Leadership Christian? Robert Ratcliff cuts through all of the Christian leadership language and suggests three clear principles for what marks Christian leadership.
Seven Building Blocks for Leaders This final post comes by way of Charles Swindoll. “I can’t think of a better model of leadership than Nehemiah. I once sat down and looked over Nehemiah’s shoulder for a couple of hours, reviewing the things this ancient Jewish leader recorded while rebuilding the wall around Jerusalem. As I read, it dawned on me that his journal is a storehouse of leadership insights.”
There are the 5 posts for this week. I hope looking back will help you to look ahead with confidence and faith.
