10 questions about leadership

9/22/2020

0 Comments

 
Colleagues,
 
As you might imagine, we talk a lot about leadership in my family. My daughter Mara, a senior at Appalachian State University, actually has been reviewing and scheduling these daily emails since July. As part of that work she reads these emails every day and sometimes they raise more questions than they answer.
 
She recently shared with me a long list of questions about leadership. Over the next couple of weeks, I’ll address some of them, but today I want to share the full list.  It is worth your time to read these questions because they offer a view into what younger and future leaders are thinking about:
 
  • What makes a leader? 
  • What’s more important, actions or mindset?
  • What’s the role of skill?
  • How do you grow people into leaders?
  • Can there be too many leaders?
  • Or is there a type of leader that makes it possible to have many leaders?
  • How can we think of leadership outside of organizations – in communities and society?
  • How can we expand the definition of leadership?
  • How do we help expand the pool of leaders to include more people from diverse backgrounds?
  • In the absence of “real” leadership in an organization, how do people exercise leadership?
 
Reflecting on these questions is very stimulating! Do you see a pattern? Mara’s questions may help you better understand how younger people think about leadership, which has powerful implications for how you should be leading!

Do good and be well,
 
Frederick
