A Privilege to Lead
Leadership is a privilege, but it can also be a drain. Not because it’s wrong or misaligned, but because leadership requires presence, judgment, emotional regulation, and decision-making long after others have clocked out. Over time, even meaningful leadership can leave us running on fumes. That doesn’t mean you’re failing; it means you’re human. One of the quiet responsibilities of leadership is knowing when it’s time to refuel.
Trust and Credibility and Why They Still Matter
When we talk about what makes communities and organizations truly successful, the first place we should look isn’t strategy documents, technology stacks, or growth plans. It’s our people — and more specifically, how we lead them. Organizations that thrive don’t do so because they’re well-funded, have better technology, or are lucky; they do so because they have the right leaders in the right positions, leaders who are able to capitalize on talents, communicate a clear and compelling vision, rally support — and build trust. This was true yesterday. It’s true today. It will be true tomorrow.
