The Leadership Trump Card

There is nothing more powerful than authenticity. It has always
 been true, but particularly in our day and age where
 nothing and no one seem to be what they appear to be.
 Young people especially have incredible instincts when it
 comes to sniffing out the authentic. Great leaders don’t lead
 with words, they lead with action.
 
 Example trumps all else when it comes to leadership.
 Being willing to get in and do what you are asking others
 to do will always be respected by those you are trying to
 lead. There is no point telling a child not to smoke if you are
 a smoker. It doesn’t matter how good your motives are. It
 doesn’t matter how grand your vision is or how good you are
 at communicating that vision. How does the old saying go?
 What you do screams so loudly that I cannot hear what you
 say.
