Last week, my friend Nick shared a story with me about an individual (we’ll call him “Larry”) with whom he had worked.\u00a0 He called the individual a true example of leadership even though Larry’s job was never thought of as a leadership position.<\/p>\n

“Larry and I were on a jobsite when there was a lightning strike nearby and there were people in the area of the strike.\u00a0 While it wasn’t really his job, Larry immediately ran to where the people were and began checking on the condition of the people.\u00a0 Who was injured?\u00a0 How badly were they hurt?\u00a0 Who had called the\u00a0 EMT’s?<\/p>\n

“Larry took the initiative and dug right in, making sure everyone was OK, everyone was safe.\u00a0 He took the initiative when he saw something that needed to be done and made sure it was done and done right.”<\/p>\n

Nick concluded that Larry’s willingness to respond to a need and get to work made Larry a real leader.\u00a0 As Nick said, “Larry didn’t want to stand on the sidelines and direct traffic; tell everybody else what to do.\u00a0 He was willing to get his hands dirty and do what needed to be done, confident that others would follow his example.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
