Sharing Leadership

� Beliefs � Do Our Own Work � Be Vulnerable � Create a Collective Vision � Realize You Leave a Wake

Beliefs

� Everyone can lead � It’s not about the title � It begins in the heart � It’s about doing the inner work

necessary to be authentic � But it takes time and patience

Do Our Own Work

� Strengths & Weaknesses � Values � Your own story

Becoming Vulnerable: Asking for Help � What’s the last thing you did that really

scared you? � When’s the last time you made a really

dumb mistake? � What is the conversation that you are

avoiding? � When was the last time you admitted you

were wrong…to someone else?

Create a Common Vision � Enter into a dialogue � Play a game of “if we could have it

any way we wanted it…” � Stay in the mess � Who do we want to be? Not

necessarily what do we want to do

The Wake You Leave � You are being watched constantly

and that’s a good thing. � Impact vs. Intent � Show up as “in process” � Be authentic � Lead with integrity and live in
