Welcome to the June 2005 edition of  “Leadership:  It’s All About Trust.”

 An on-line newsletter from Ellen Castro that addresses

leadership in today’s ever changing world.

 

 

Today’s Leaders

 

Today’s leaders know …

 

·                    That while today’s demographics may be different, people are more alike than they are different.

·                    That all individuals want to be respected, trusted and cared for.

·                    That different does not equal difficult.

 

Thus, today’s leaders …

 

·                    See beyond the differences to the similarities to build trust and connections.

·                    Understand the similarities by listening with their eyes, ears and heart.

·                    Allow their followers the freedom to express their individuality and share their unique gifts.

·                    Know that you get what you give.  You reap what you sow.  There are NO neutral actions.

·                    Realize that leadership is in the eye of the follower.  Trust is of the heart.

 

Today’s leaders choose to build self esteem, confidence and connections in every single moment, in every single way.
