Leading From Within

The complexities of the COVID-19 pandemic shine a light on the benefits of a more engaging leadership approach.

By Buck Rogers

In the future, when reflecting on this moment in history, the strong leaders of today will be distinguished from those who preceded them by embodying one common quality: leading from within. Today more than ever, the leaders who are making a positive impact are actively engaging in new ways to receive employee input so they can best use the knowledge, talent, and experience within their teams. These leaders are dynamically learning and immediately adapting to meet the challenges they face. In contrast to leading from above, they are leading from within. This is a unique leadership quality that will become increasingly important and play a bigger role as businesses continue to move forward in the turbulent and dynamically changing environment caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
