All leaders have one thing in common; their humanity.
Successful leaders invest their time and energy learning all they can about their world so that they, and their teams, achieve their goals. This is what we all look for in our leaders; isn’t it? While we do look for knowledgeable and focused people to follow, there is one more trait that sets apart those who are passionately followed – EMOTION!
The ancient Greek philosopher Plato said, “Human behavior flows from three main sources: desire, emotion, and knowledge.” You see, knowing what you want (desire) and learning how to get it (knowledge) isn’t enough for us humans. How we feel about our walk in life (emotions) really matters.
Emotions aren’t something else you do; they are integral to everything you do.
