Loving Those You Lead

Loving Those You Lead

If we are in leadership, we will eventually have to learn to love the unlovely.

Overview

"Play nice," we tell our children when they spend time with others. We know it's inevitable: someone will get hurt. Fast forward a few decades and we find nothing much has changed. As long as we work with people, we can get hurt; but we can determine whether we will react or respond to the offender.
