🌄What makes a great leader?
One of the things that I've been reflecting on the last few days has been leadership and the qualities of a great leader. Leadership is not always about titles or authority. It is about influence, integrity, and impact — guiding others toward a shared vision while bringing out the best in them.
When thinking about qualities of a great leader, this is what first came to mind:
✨ Empathy: A great leader listens deeply and understands the needs, feelings, and perspectives of others.
🧭 Vision: They see the bigger picture and inspire others to move toward it with purpose and clarity.
🤝 Integrity: Their actions align with their values. People trust what they say because they live it.
🔥 Courage: They make difficult decisions, take responsibility, and stand firm in uncertainty.
🌱 Humility: True leaders know they do not have all the answers. They are open to feedback and growth.
💡 Empowerment: They lift others up, delegate wisely, and encourage independence rather than control.
It seems like the greatest leadership I've seen has not been about perfection (though there is an aim for excellence!); it is about presence. It means showing up with authenticity, guiding through example, and being willing to learn alongside their team.
I've been blessed with some great leaders in my life and some that left something to be desired. I've learned from all.
Question to ponder: What quality do you think defines a great leader the most? Who do you consider a great leader and why?
