Ep. 175- Gutless Leadership is the Opposite of Leadership

Gutless leadership
Don’t try this at home please.

If you don’t have the guts to have tough conversations, make tough decisions and stand for your mission, vision and values, you have no business leading people.  There is a leadership crisis in the world and it stems from the abundance of gutless leadership.  The problem with gutless leadership is that it’s not leadership at all.

Leadership is only courage and wisdom, and a great carefulness of self. ~ John Buchan

According to Gallup workplace in engagement is at about 31%.  This means that two thirds of the workforce is not actively engaged in the objectives of the company.  The easy response to this is to blame it on the employees; Millenials are lazy, people just want a paycheck, etc.  People want more and we all need help and support.  This is where you come in.
