Lee Ellis said this quote

“ Leaders devoid of crucible experiences are likely to be overly confident about their ideas, and surprisingly more susceptible to fears; this is also true of children who are overly sheltered from facing challenges and experiences that help build their character. Courageously facing our fears in the difficult times gives us both humility and real confidence. ”

Good leaders know who they are—their strengths, weaknesses, passions, talents, and values. And, developing leaders always starts with self-awareness.

~ Lee Ellis

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.

~ Lee Ellis

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.
