Where did you learn your greatest leadership lessons? Where did your "mettle" get called forward? My guess is that for all of us, myself included, it's through those times when our leadership and team waters were at their choppiest.
Mettle is defined in the Mirriam- Webster Dictionary as " vigor and strength of spirit or temperament b : staying quality or stamina"
It's the times of crisis and challenge where we often see the best, and worst, of people and leaders. Being able to lead through turbulent waters, and ongoing change, is what great leadership is all about. Turbulence and ongoing change is also the current business context today. How does this impact your approaches, your staying power?
In a quiet moment this week, think about and reflect on where your leadership mettle has been honed? What experiences have caused you to learn the most? How would you characterize your leadership spirit? What id your staying power? Which experiences have influenced you to become the leader you are, or motivate you to be the leader you aspire to be? What have you learned from these?
