Choose your leaders carefully.
Wise words that we would all agree with, and yet how many of us get to know the obvious and not-so-obvious aspects of a leader – BEFORE we jump in and follow them?
The obvious aspects are those we can all see. Examples are their likeability, dressing, body language, and grooming. Also their tone of voice, leadership style, and their past performance.
Not so obvious aspects would mean those qualities and attributes that we cannot see without getting to know them personally or investigating with more discerning eyes. Usually, these aspects include their values, operating model, typical emotional state, beliefs, honesty, candor, ethics, and integrity.
