Leading well is critical — especially during the challenging times in which we find ourselves these days. That’s why I think my recent conversation with Bobby Lewis, Executive Vice President of Operations at Love Worth Finding is so important.
According to Bobby, great leaders:
Are lifelong learners who focus on adding knowledge and skills regularly
Lead THROUGH others rather than trying to do everything themselves
Invest in mentoring others so that skill-building becomes an ingrained focus across organizations
Develop deep, meaningful relationships with those they mentor, rather than trying to rush the process
Lead through collaboration and consensus-building instead of dictating
Embrace the power of relationships rather than focusing on authority-based leadership
Get close to people — staff, donors, and clients — in times of crisis, rather than pulling away
Build trust by investing in people and relationships
There’s some real leadership gold in this episode. You don’t want to miss it!
