Leadership Is Not For Everyone

One thing I have realised over the years is that not everyone is suited to leadership. With leadership comes responsibility and my belief that has been formed is that a person must want to take on a leadership role in order to have an opportunity of being successful, and not have the role simply thrust upon them. Unfortunately too many people are thrust into a leadership role based on their performance as an individual contributor, and find it challenging. In today’s episode, I discuss some of the key attributes that we need to possess in order to be a good leader, whilst also recognising that it is okay if we choose not to be a leader. Enjoy.
