Leaders Know Where They Are Going

by Rob Fore

Do YOU Know?

Lisa and I recently went to Walmart to see if we could find a “bazillion” pack of AA batteries. I was leading the charge and Lisa was following, assuming I knew where I was going.

I purposely made a couple out of the way turns and noticed she was still dutifully following. So I made it a point to WALK IN CIRCLES.

Lisa followed me round the first circle – a trip around the candle and gift area. On the second pass… she noticed what I was doing and stopped dead in her tracks.

Moral of the story? People don’t like to follow people who don’t know where they are going.

  • Do YOU know where you are going?
  • Are YOU leading by example?
  • Have YOU written out your dreams and goals – YOUR “Declaration of Independence” and shared with you team?
