Each week, I compile the resources related to leadership, personal growth, and professional development I shared on social media the prior week, with the accompanying quotations.
……..
Eva Asselmann:
“Is there a leadership ‘personality’?” (9-12-25).
“Great leadership doesn’t follow a template. It grows from authenticity and adaptability. The good news is that you have greater agency over your personality than you might assume.”
……..
Julie Winkle Giulioni:
“Why hope might be the most powerful leadership strategy”
(9-11-25).
“Leaders who give employees a say in how they approach work, problem-solve or pursue goals instill agency. People feel capable, and that can ignite hope.”
……..
David Burkus:
“Leading Through Uncertain Times” (9-13-25).
“The real job of leading through uncertainty isn’t about having the right answer in advance—it’s about building the capacity to learn, adapt, and course-correct as events unfold.”
……..
Lindsey Godwin:
“Enough Already: The Psychology of Proving Yourself at Work”
(9-17-25).
“The strongest workplaces build trust, expect accountability, and treat people like they matter. When value is not always up for debate, people stop performing and start contributing.”
……..
Patty Bedard and Adam Hickman:
“Two pillars make leadership teams truly great: character & competence” (Sept. 2025).
“Competence enables leaders to deliver results in complex, fast-changing environments.
Character ensures those results are achieved in a manner that builds trust, inspires loyalty, and protects long-term reputation.”
