"Children don’t learn from teaching as much as they learn from observing"
...Willis Langford
One of the best tips my wife and I received as young parents was to try to be perfect role models for our kids. This meant that we needed to watch what we said, how we treated others and how we reacted. In short, we lived our young parenting life as though we were under CCTV coverage 😍. Needless to say, that we loved it, with God's help!
This is so true because in reality, no matter how much we teach our kids, their learning mainly comes from observing and trying to follow or emulate our actions. This can be said of leadership as well. Unless we model ourselves to others, by our thought process, our actions and words, we will not be justifying the fundamentals of leadership.
We have seen over the years that great leaders never promote fan-following, instead their words and actions spark interest in the other!
📌Questions for us today?
1️⃣ Are we igniting positivity in the other, through our words and action?
2️⃣ Are we subtle influencers of people, guiding them in the right direction?
3️⃣ Are we brand ambassadors of 'leading by example'?
Please feel free to share experiences of your leadership style as well?
Stay Blessed 🙏
