BE LIKE YOUR HEROES

Be A Better Leader

BE MORE LIKE YOUR HEROES!

Recently I was at a workshop with my good friend designer Ayse Birsel. Ayse has created a program that helps leaders Design the Life You Love. During the program, Ayse asked us( the participants) to list our heroes.

I made my list. Here are some of the people who were on my list.

• Frances Hesselbein, Former Girl Scout CEO

• Alan Mulally, Former Ford CEO

• Paul Hersey, Co-creator of Situational Leadership ®

• Peter Drucker, Father of Modern Management

• Bob Tannenbaum, UCLA Professor

• Warren Bennis, Renowned Leadership Expert

• Richard Beckhard, World Leading Organizational Development Consultant

• Buddha

Then, Ayse asked us to put down next to each person’ s name, what we found so heroic about them. I did that and this is what it looked like.

• Frances Hesselbein – extremely generous, great teacher

• Alan Mulally – extremely generous, great teacher

• Paul Hersey – extremely generous, great teacher

• Peter Drucker – extremely generous, great teacher

• Bob Tannenbaum – extremely generous, great teacher

• Warren Bennis— extremely generous, great teacher

• Richard Beckhard— extremely generous, great teacher
