Lead or Be Led

Looking back over my life, I've come to realize that in many ways, I am a Leader. Even though sometimes I want to blend into the background, that's not always possible in certain situations. At other times, the decision must be made of how willing I am to being led even though I am a leader.

Being a leader is more than barking out orders at people and expecting complete obedience on their part. Regardless to whether or not you lead the project or are just a part of the team, being the leader means you have to know when to operate from that leadership position or take on the responsibility as a teammate. To keep the ultimate goal of being successful in your endeavors regardless of your position or title.
                           
This months video is about recognizing the need for good leadership and recognizing good leadership abilities in others.  The position I found myself in when someone I led ultimately wanted to be the leader and my reaction.  I hope you will evaluate your leadership style and understand the importance of working effectively and efficiently regardless to whether or not you lead or are being led.
