Follow Me - "Follow" suggests a direction

Leadership is about influencing others to follow them. Followers are more likely to follow if they know the Leader has a direction. Followers want assurance that  leaders know where they are going. When you explain your direction use simple descriptive words. Watch out for jargon!

Avoid getting bogged down with words like destiny, strategic intent, vision, purpose, goal, mission, etc. Ask yourself, “Where am I going? What am I doing? Why is it important to me, to others?” You might be surprised how clear that will be. Let me know.
