As
a kid, I learned a lot about work driving around with my boss in his
plumber’s truck. He was doing the work, sharing his timesaving,
worksaving experience. I learned a perspective
for thinking I’ve kept and added to for forty years.
I
shared that with a woman who runs a large insurance brokerage. She
thought about it and said she makes a point of having new interns
follow her around as she is working for the same reason.
Leadership
isn’t criticizing first attempts, it’s about demonstrating world
class performance.
Sugarland’s
Down In
Mississippi (Up To No Good) lyric,
Hammer
down, here we go
Runnin' for the riverboat
All you're gonna see is asses and elbows
Runnin' for the riverboat
All you're gonna see is asses and elbows
is
a portrait of a junior watching an effective leader.
Leadership
is by example, not controlling others.
Support
for a leader is natural, stomping it out is usual.

Law - “No matter who you are, most of the smartest people work
for someone else.”
