As leaders, we are never responsible for filling anyone else's cup. Our responsibility is to empty ours.
You make PEACE with your past by owning your PIECE of the past.
Loyalty publicly results in leverage privately.
Intervention giving is emotional and the results are measurable.
Acknowledging weakness doesn't make a leader less effective. On the contrary, in most cases it is simply a way of expressing that he understands what everyone else has known for some time. When you acknowledge your weaknesses to the rest of your team, it is never new information.
What you fear most will determine whether you merely save for the future or give for the future.
