    Key tenets of Inspirational Leadership?

    Many of us feel that to be leaders we need to have a rank or position. This blog post will enlighten you on some Inspirational Leadership tenets.

    I have been highly inspired by Simon Sinek’s work on leadership which is not only applicable at work but our personal lives as well.

    According to him when we are able to inspire others to dream and achieve the unthinkable we become leaders, irrespective of our rank or position.

    When we look after others around us, we become responsible workers, parents as well as children.

    The following two inspirational quotes from Simon Sinek have very deep meaning and can be extended to all our lives.

    When my child grows up I would like to be REMEMBERED as a RESPONSIBLE PARENT who left behind a LEGACY.

    Extending Leadership to Parenting is another way to be a better parent. This would help nurture the child and enable him/her to unleash their best self.

    I am a big fan of this insight from Simon Sinek, which is a masterclass on good parenting.

    This should act as a guiding star for one and all who wants to be a good parent and leave a legacy behind.

    To me my Pet is like my own child and hence the ONE THING I would like to make my pet understand is : I HAVE YOUR BACK.

    Leadership is very similar to PARENTING. The ones who need your help i.e. your family your children, your pet need to live their lives without FEAR.

    For this to happen, i as a LEADER need to ensure that I HAVE THEIR BACK.

    A good leader and hence great leadership needs empathy and true courage. Leadership is in many ways similar to parenting.

    As Simon Sinek says:

    “The joy of parenting comes from seeing our children do things that delight us. Similarly the joy of leadership comes from seeing someone in our team do more than they thought they were capable of. “

    Read these very insightful blogs that capture true essence of great leadership based on lessons learnt from Simon Sinek.

    Why prioritizing PEOPLE pay DIVIDENDS for GREAT LEADERS?
    Do you consider yourself a COURAGEOUS LEADER?

    And finally I end with another great of Simon Sinek:

    “Leadership is not about being in charge, it’s about taking care of those in your charge”

  • This is how leadership is similar to parenting

    Adopted from Simon Sinek’s great leadership quotes:

    “The JOY of LEADERSHIP comes from seeing others achieve more than they thought they were capable of.”

    Adopted from Simon Sinek’s book titled “Together is Better”
