It's All About G.R.I.T.
Have you ever been around someone who you could tell was a good leader by how they engaged those around them? Many times we think of leaders as being extroverted, assertive, outspoken individuals. I have studied and walked with leaders for many years and I want to challenge that line of thinking. I have found that there are attributes, characteristics, and behaviors that strong leaders exhibit on a personal as well as professional level that are different from what you may think.
I have boiled down these traits to one word…GRIT. I am not referring to the popular, tiny white grain that is eaten in the South. I am referring to an acronym that defines what an excellent leader looks like.
GRIT stands for: Get over yourself; Run toward the hard thing; Inspire others; Take time for your growth and renewal.
In the recent episode of my podcast Crossing The Line, I explain how to become a person of GRIT and how it will positively impact your life. I invite you to join me by clicking the link below.
Leading yourself and others well is important to all of us. When we choose to become a person of GRIT we will make a difference.
