LEADERSHIPDoing what is necessary
“Leadership” is a concept we often resist. It seems immodest, even self-aggrandizing, to think of ourselves as leaders. But if it is true that we are made for community, then leadership is everyone’s vocation, and it can be an evasion to insist that it is not… everyone follows and everyone leads.
> Palmer, Parker J. (2000). Let your Life Speak
LEADERSHIPDoing what is necessary
The only guidance we can get on the inner journey
comes through relationships in which others can help us
discern our leadings.
~Parker Palmer, A Hidden Wholeness
LEADERSHIPDoing what is necessary
This is a story about four people named Somebody, Everybody, Anybody, and Nobody. There was an important job to be done.
Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it, but Nobody did. Somebody got angry about it because it was Everybody’s job. Everybody thought Anybody could do it. Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it.
It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.
LEADERSHIPDoing what is necessary
• Always pretend to know more than everyone around you.• Put up barriers between departments.• Ask for a 200 page document to justify every new idea.• Call lots of meetings.• Place the biggest emphasis on the budget.

"I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know: The ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve.“
Albert Schweitzer
SERVICE THROUGH TACTICS AND STRATEGIES
The right strategy makes any tactic work better. The right strategy puts less pressure on executing your tactics perfectly.
