There is a beautiful diversity when you look at leaders, each shaped by how they’ve been created and the experiences they’ve had. A Leader doesn’t fit a singular template to be copied. Leaders aren’t manufactured, they’re cultivated.
Leadership contains common themes, uniquely expressed in each leader. The design elements shape who we are as leaders, informing what kind of leaders we become.
This series explores six design elements that are not only important to visual design but to leadership design as well.
As we dive into each element, I’ll provide tools to help you discover your own design and take the next steps of growth. Let’s get started...
If you're not prioritizing, then you're not leading. Identifying what is priority and orienting yourself and others around it is essential work for any leader.
Aligning with your priorities and how you’ve been designed will be your highest ROI as a growing leader.
Who you spend time with will shape you as a leader. Your leadership community can be your leadership super power.
Contrast cultivates empathy in us as leaders. Everyone has a role to play. If you’re only around people like yourself, you won’t grow.
As a leader, we often feels like our work is never done; there is always more. We usually don’t need more. We need less.
You need to establish a cadence of life to guide you. Embrace the rhythm you were designed for and allow it to orient your leadership journey.
