learning to lead WHEN I BEGAN WRITING THIS COLUMN FIVE YEARS AGO TO EMPOWER YOU IN LEADERSHIP, I NEVER IMAGINED I WOULD HAVE TO DISCOVER NEW PERSONAL DISCIPLINES FOR MYSELF. I had to learn how to
consistently get the articles into the editor, along with new insights into how to find the energy and creativity for each issue. And I’ve contemplated a lot about what it means to be a leader. So I wrote a new definition.
Def. leader
noun lead·er \ ˈlē-dər \ A life-long learner. My new definition of a leader is that she is life-long learner. A leader is a person who never stagnates in the status quo. A leader absorbs and develops what she has learned into strategies to lead her team.
