Leading with kindness means focusing on "the means" or how you get there, just as seriously as you focus on the "ends"!
A quick reminder today. There are many ways to reach the goals you have, whether they be at work, at home, in the community or in the world.
But just reaching a goal, hitting a target, isn’t the only - or most important - thing.
How you get there, how you reach that goal or hit that target, is just as - or even more - important.
That’s because the actions you take and the words you choose to use while pursuing those goals and targets affect others. And they can affect them in negative or positive ways.
They can make others work and live in fear, feel demeaned and excluded. They can make others feel unappreciated and small and without hope.
Or, they can bring people together for the common good. Allow people to truly be themselves and make the unique contributions only they can make. Your words and actions can help people learn and grow and create positive change that will be felt for generations to come.
We all have goals and targets. And each of us has a choice about how we go about accomplishing them. Every day. Every minute. Every second.
Please choose ways that don’t just have positive outcomes for you…but that affect others in a kind, positive way.
