Learning leadership
“ Some leaders learn to lead by making mistakes and then reflecting enough on those mistakes to develop principles for the future…another way is to learn the principles based on the mistakes of others.”
We can save ourselves a lot of trouble by learning leadership principles form others, but that is all they are, principles. We cannot learn how to lead or how to “think” leadership by observing other leaders. All these principles do is give us a starting point. The ability to lead and adapt in new situations will only come with experience. Experience will reveal the illusion of leadership principles.
