Great Leaders Share

I have operated and worked under many different types of leadership and one thing really stands out.... great leaders are willing to share ideas and welcome others’ ideas and input.

In a culture where people trust each other and feel safe, they also feel more open to share ideas and have the team's best interests in mind. They are less likely to guard their own backs and protect their own ideas and interests.

Not only do great leaders share their ideas, but they also ask others who are more knowledgeable for help. They allow others to share their expertise and speak into a situation that may need a fresh set of eyes or an outside perspective. They are constantly looking for opportunities to build others up, promote and encourage them, and empower them.
