Poignant truths to remember for all leaders
You are human and not a machine and so is your team.
You are here to lead, not here to be liked by all.
You will also make mistakes, and that is how you learn
You will adapt as you cannot control everything, some things are unavoidable and sooner you acknowledge it the better.
You will be challenged by a few in inexplicable ways , but these experiences will empower you.
Your teams will outgrow you in time, even if you have invested your all in them .
You will learn how to sustain in the letting go , that is the way of evolving with change.
And most of all the higher you climb the lonelier you will feel.
Be prepared to manage it.

SMiLes Dear Savvy
Even Among Chimpanzees
As Studied By Frans de Waal
The So-Called ‘Alpha Male Leader’
As Dominate Brute is a Myth as Even
Chimpanzees Choose a Leader That is
Most Cooperative
And Most Empathetic
Who Cares for All the
Chimps and Not Just
A Select Few Cronies
And Yes Even Studies of
Cortisol Related Stress Hormones
Show They Have the Most Stressful
‘Job’ of All Taking Care of All These Needs
Yes Servant Leaders They are to Lift Their
Team up For Basic Survival and Thriving too
Surely
Not to
Divide
Conquer
Dragging Them
Versus Us Down
Sadly Some Human
Leaders And Those Who Follow
Have Yet to Learn These Lessons
Well of Course the Entire Group
Pays the
Price in
Ignorance
of the Value
of Servant Leadership..:)

Very true. Hard hitting but valuable learnings on leadership . But actually speaking if a leader realises that there is no leader without a follower , leaders will begin to value the role and the significance of humility as much as humanity.
