I often come back to the words of St. Irenaeus, “the Glory of God is a human being, fully alive,” and strive to be a leader that calls out and nurtures the gift of others. At the same time, I am also not afraid to be directive, to hold people to account, and to give and ask for constructive feedback. More and more in my leadership, I find myself asking those around me, “what am I not seeing" and "what are you hearing." I seek to listen and consult in order to take definitive action when necessary.
