Participation as a Responsibility

Another Side of Leadership
Beyond the public recognition of the leadership contribution should come a more discreet counterpoint. The work that gets done behind the scenes should also take as much of a priority as the flashy presentation that gets splashed all over the trendiest web sites and blogs. How much leadership do you provide that only a precious few people, perhaps only one person at times, actually notices? That doesn't seem to be worth the investment, does it? But it does to that one person whose life you just impacted. Big time.
"Do all the good you can. By all the means you can. In all the ways you can. In all the places you can. At all the times you can. To all the people you can. As long as ever you can."
— John Wesley
How About You
Check your calendar...it's full. Check your task list...it's full too. Now check the mirror. Still too busy to provide leadership that won't end up on the backchannel?
I'd love to hear from you.
No Excuses.
