Vote for Me!
Ever wondered where leaders get their inspiration?
It might be hiding in unexpected places like a children's book!
Recently, I read an interesting kids' book called "Vote for Me" with my daughter.
The story is about a class election where two kids want to be class president.
To my delight, the story presented a list of key attributes of a great leader:
✅ Listens to Others: Leaders who listen well understand their team's needs and ideas.
✅ Has Ideas and Opinions: They contribute valuable thoughts and are not afraid to share their perspectives.
✅ Asks for Opinions: Great leaders value everyone's input and encourage open communication.
✅ Check Ideas: They take the time to review and consider different suggestions before making decisions.
✅ Clarifies Ideas: Leaders ensure that everyone understands the goals and plans clearly.
✅ Makes Sure Everyone Has a Turn: They create inclusive environments where everyone has a chance to participate and contribute.
It’s a wonderful reminder that leadership is about understanding, collaboration, and fairness.
… and leadership lessons can be found in the most unexpected places!
