Leaders take the lead.
Sounds basic but is often overlooked in leadership.
When starting any new initiative, here’s the tough truth.
There is always resistance.
There are always unknowns and kinks to work through in anything new.
Always.
This is the reason why when a leader begins a new initiative, they must be the ones who lead it.
A leader must roll up his/her sleeves and get messy.
Why?
Even successful initiatives have roadblocks.
This is why your call to action is to lead the charge and smooth out the kinks.
Once the foundation is laid, then you delegate and get out of the way so your team can execute.
Then on to the next initiative.
Rinse and repeat.
Just remember: Leaders take the lead.
