Linda,

That’s a wise saying from your dad, I’m sure it was not due to a lack of cooking skills :) Leading from a position of love and caring does put me in the right mindset to lead with authenticity and conviction, I guess it’s true for you too!

And yes, listening and respecting those I'm leading, or helping, is key to doing a good job as leader. When people feel heard, and understood, they become supporters, collaborators, believers, and friends. An essential ingredient is love, or caring. I remember my dad saying that about cooking - "Never make a pot of spaghetti sauce without a little TLC!" Suraj, Love that last quote – hilarious!

It is such a pleasure to connect with you – your blog writing truly inspires me! I fully resonate with you on leadership, I can feel that you lead an inspired life with a secure sense of your own internal brilliance and mission. I also believe that I need to follow those that I’m leading, in order to be a better leader for them, wonder if you have found that in your life too? You are right, as a leader, you should be able to welcome criticism and disagreement and take it on the chin at times. Didn’t someone rightly say, “It’s hard to lead a cavalry charge if you think you look funny on a horse.” Dear Linda,

I have learned to be a leader at my workplace, in my volunteer work, in my family and personal relationships, not as a forceful autocrat but as a confident person sure in my knowledge level and willing to share it with others and take whatever comes back, good or bad, and stay detached from it, and objective, and kind to others even in disagreement. Thanks for sharing the wisdom. .-= Linda@InsanelySerene´s last blog ..<a href="http://insanelyserene.wordpress.com/2010/01/17/integrity-post-2-aligning-my-actions-with-my-values/" rel="nofollow">Integrity Post #2: Aligning My Actions with My Values</a> =-.
