Are You an Authentic Leader?

Bad bosses.

You know, there’s ALWAYS one you’ll encounter.

Good leaders inspire, but how do you do that? One strategy is to truly be an authentic leader, which includes these elements:

  • Authentic leaders demonstrate your values through your actions, not just talking about your values. Remember, “It’s what you do, not what you say.”
  • Authentic leaders allow yourselves to show vulnerabilities. It’s ok if you’re stressed out or need help. You don’t always have the answers.
  • Authentic leaders have a growth mindset. You’re always learning & growing. You don’t believe you know everything.
