Lee Ellis said this quote

Fearful leaders side-step issues instead of dealing with them, cover up mistakes instead of owning up to mistakes; they skulk back into the shadows and hope that the crisis—whatever it is—will somehow blow over instead of facing their fears. Worse, they resort to lies and deception to cover up the truth.

To guard our character with unwavering commitment, our best protection comes from being humbly aware of our vulnerability.

~ Lee Ellis

Courage is leaning into the doubts and fears to do what you know is right even when it doesn’t feel natural or safe.

~ Lee Ellis

An honorable leader must demonstrate a willingness to reveal his or her ‘inner self’ to their team. It builds trust and trust is essential. It’s also a sign of strength and authenticity, and people are attracted to those who are ‘real’ and authentic.
