In today’s world, leadership is crucial across various domains like business, politics, education, and community. However, our traditional view of leadership, often tied to self-confidence and charisma in hierarchical roles, is too narrow. Research shows that traits like extraversion and self-confidence do not always lead to better outcomes. We need a new approach: encouraging everyone to see themselves as leaders, fostering self-awareness, collaboration, and supportive environments.

We are all leaders.
We lead our lives. We may lead teams. At minimum we lead our own 1 person team.
We learn about leadership. As kids, as young adults, as parents. Through hardships.
We learn about leadership when working for a truly inspiring leader.
We learn about leadership also when working for micro-managers, or other “less inspiring” leaders.
