As a leader, how easily do you admit weakness or inadequacy? How often do you ask for help? Are you tempted to shelter your ego and muscle through difficulty on your own?
In a blog post this week, speaker, author and leader Michele Cushatt wrote about a recent experience she had that forced her to confront her own weakness and admit that even though she is a leader, she too has moments of need.
In her post Michele shares this piece of wisdom for every leader:
“Weakness—that occasional moment of neediness—isn’t evidence of failure; it’s proof of LIFE.”
She went on to say, “Asking for help doesn’t disqualify you from leadership. But refusing to might.”
