The Way to Be a Leader

So much writing is devoted to how to be a leader. Books, courses, articles, magazines, and on and on.

They all offer the way to be a leader, (and offer different ways) but too often ignore the main point.

The way to be a leader is to know who you are. Knowing yourself is a barrier in the road to leadership, and until you surpass it, your leadership success will be limited.

Until you know yourself, you won’t be able to choose the right leadership style for you. Until you know yourself, you can read as many leadership books, take as many training courses, as you want–but you won’t become the leader you wish to be.

The way to be a leader is to know yourself. And then discover how to be a leader as yourself.
