    This has been my approach to leadership. I wasn't trained to lead this way, rather, I used this approach because I believe we know the answers; and as Julia stated, we need people to guide us through the reflection process by asking questions. And it [truly] does have a more effective positive impact on both finding a solution and one's understanding .

    I experienced leadership in my college year, for some reason I find this leader thing as a good benefit to me tbh. It's an adrenaline to me knowing what are the potential in this group if either competitive or just wanting to pass the given project. You have members who are lower than you and you will have members who are higher than you. The higher ones sometimes give the leadership to others because they can provide ideas and let the leader assign them what to do. Then you just realize that there is potential after the long work and at the end of the day you know the people who can be reliable when it comes to this kind of projects. I don't know in the field of work but I would love to take the position of being a leader someday in my passion.

    Reminds me of David Rock’s book, Quiet Leadership. What a game changer! I’ve heard it said, leaders aren’t paid to think for others but to raise the level of thinking for those they serve.
    Excellent high level review! Appreciate the tongue and cheek remark at the end!

    Real leaders first learn how to follow first. Army taught me this.Officers actually manage, it is the NCO's that lead. I was an NCO. E-5 and E-6.I led. First I followed. This carried iover to my civilian career as a Merchant Mariner.

    The problem is that a lot of people take on "leadership", just because they're too lazy or incompetent to do anything else. It is unclear from her speech how you will coach without being a subject matter expert.

      Absolutely agree. Leadership is something else - its the ability to overcome adaptive challenges and activating people through soft powers is just a small part of it.
      This is about managerial skills which are always needed, leadership is needed in time of change.

    Sorry, but that was a winding road of a speech that I got lost in the first 5 mins of!🤷🏼‍♀️
    I don't think she needed 12 mins when she already told us the just of the speech in the first 5 mins. I felt like it was really hard to follow along with what she was trying to say. She would jump around to different conversational points and I had trouble figuring out her train of thought.

Yes a leader who needs to make speeches to large groups of people needs to develop good speaking skills, however for the 99% of leaders who are not in that situation, they need the coaching skills to communicate one on one. That is the point of this talk -even though she appeared a bit nervous.

      I assume you think of yourself as a leader? Publicly criticising and demeaning someone is hardly likely to inspire anyone you aim to lead. In addition I’d like to express my sympathy that you cant find “any use” in great content when something about the presentation bothered you, this seems like a self limiting belief.
