Can questions give us answers?

Colleagues,
 
Yes, they can! Yesterday, I shared a list of leadership questions that my 21-year old daughter gave me, and I challenged you to make meaning from the list.
 
I saw two powerful themes in her questions, both of which give me optimism:

1. How do we exercise leadership regardless of our experience and position?
2. How do we foster leadership in others, especially those who may be marginalized or face additional barriers to becoming leaders?

 
Think about this. Do we have a generation of young people coming into the workforce who see leadership as part of the job? Do they view leadership as something we should all own together? 
 
Implicit in these questions is the idea that leadership can and should take many forms, and that it should be accessible to more people.
 
We live in a time when our previous ways of leading may not work as well. Should we take some time to play with some ideas about what leadership can look like? 
 
For me the answer is yes. I hope you’ll share in this journey. It begins tomorrow.
 
Do good and be well,
 
Frederick
