I Wasn’t Ready
I WASN'T READY.
The promotion I never expected became the leadership journey I never knew I needed.
Lately, I've found myself reflecting on some of the lessons the workplace has quietly taught me over the years.
Not the achievements people usually see.
The moments that challenged me.
The moments that exposed me.
The moments that forced me to grow.
One of those moments began with an opportunity I never expected.
If I'm being honest, I wasn't planning to become a supervisor.
I was actually planning to leave.

What two CEOs taught me about leadership, listening, and walking the ground.
Leadership is often associated with boardrooms, strategy meetings, presentations, and decision-making. Those things are certainly part of leadership. But over the years, I've come to believe that some of the most important leadership moments happen far away from the boardroom. They happen on the ground.
