\"leadership\"<\/a>Like many others, I have read and appreciated the insights of Steve Farber\u2019s\u00a0The Radical LEAP<\/em><\/a>, and seen in many instances the various ways in which\u00a0love, energy, audacity\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0power<\/em>\u00a0have been key ingredients in the advancing successes of our organizations.\u00a0\u00a0And like many others, recent team successes in my own organization caused me to exercise a process I have found highly valuable.\u00a0\u00a0In fact, I\u2019ve noticed a very candid process among the more accomplished leaders:\u00a0\u00a0They continually examine their purpose and motivation as it is expressed in their own \u2018audacity\u2019.<\/p>\n

You may recall in the latter part of\u00a0Radical LEAP<\/em>\u00a0the central figures of the book\u2014Steve, and his unlikely mentor, Edg\u2014return to a deeper examination of what precisely\u00a0audacious<\/em>\u00a0means.\u00a0\u00a0While Steve explains his understanding of how is own audacity has allowed him to be an effective mentor to others, it is the emphasis by Edg that brings about a significant emotional event for Steve.\u00a0\u00a0Here is the turning point of their exchange.<\/p>\n

Edg: \u201c\u2026Audacity is a \u2018bold and blatant disregard for normal constraints.\u2019\u00a0\u00a0But if you look it up\u2026you\u2019ll see that it has a couple of connotations.\u00a0\u00a0One is audacity as it relates to courage, and the other is the audacity synonymous with impudence, temerity, or brazenness.\u201d<\/p>\n

Then Edg crystalizes\u2014for all of us\u2014the difference by telling Steve, \u201c\u2026[T]he difference between the two meanings comes down to love versus ego\u2026in other words, some people are audacious just for the purpose of drawing attention to themselves\u2026\u201d.<\/p>\n

This impactful declaration is one all leaders must put to themselves by continually and candidly measuring their work.\u00a0\u00a0This assessment also becomes increasingly imperative as organizations experience new forms of success.\u00a0\u00a0Without this process, how exactly does a leader know why he or she is motivated to do what they are?\u00a0\u00a0More importantly, if leaders do not genuinely challenge themselves to produce the evidence to show that the audacity in their own form of leadership is facilitated and utilized for love, then how can anyone else in the organization truly know if that leader really cares about them?<\/p>\n

An additional challenge may exist in understanding what\u00a0type<\/em>\u00a0or\u00a0form\u00a0<\/em>of love may be involved.\u00a0That is both understandable and healthy.\u00a0\u00a0That self-examination is both necessary and valuable no matter how many times the leader invokes this inward assessment.\u00a0\u00a0But I do believe it is important for two distinct reasons.<\/p>\n

First, I have found in most cases that the role of a leader doesn\u2019t \u2018grow\u2019; it doesn\u2019t actually take on more responsibility, more tasks, or more duties.\u00a0\u00a0If anything, there can often be a mild reduction in the list of responsibilities a leader actually can count.<\/p>\n

But that doesn\u2019t mean the role of the leader has shrunk; quite the contrary.\u00a0\u00a0What the effective leader finds rather quickly is that by working with and appropriately through their team members, the leader is able to provide real roles of responsibility to their charges that directly relate to the overall success of the organization; they allow those people to make decisions and employ strategies that enhance the team\u2019s rate of advancement and they allow these newest leaders to enjoy those accomplishments alongside the rest of the team.<\/p>\n

And as this occurs, the leader then begins to recognize both the new opportunities and the demands for them to be more involved with.\u00a0\u00a0The perspective of the leader becomes wider, more informed, more aware.\u00a0\u00a0The leader\u00a0understands<\/em>\u00a0more, and in turn is caused to care more.<\/p>\n

The second effect of the ongoing self-assessment is that the leader will continue to more accurately identify the other forms audacity being expressed throughout the organization and the motivation that fuels them.\u00a0\u00a0When the leader of an organization successfully and thoroughly demonstrates that their own audacity is in fact borne and propelled by the depth of the caring they have for the purpose and mission of the organization, AND, the people who bring life and definition to that purpose and mission\u2014success will be ever-present.<\/p>\n

It is in this manner that leadership most vividly can be cultivated throughout an organization.\u00a0\u00a0A relentless pursuit of audaciousness through the love the organization shares among its people, purpose and mission will provide lasting growth, learning and success.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
