Workshop: Awaken the Leader Within

2021 Dwelling Challenge_Career_Awaken the Leader Within.jpg

Whether you are part of a team, a community, or a family that you care about, at some point you might ask yourself, “How can I do more?” And that’s what every person who values growth wants for themselves and others. How can I make an impact in society? How can I lead others to become happier and more fulfilled in their own lives?

There are two ways you can come into leadership: one way is you are put into the position of a leader or manager, and you learn to fill the role given to you. Work long enough in an organisation and it’s time to promote you into management. The other way you can come into leadership is of your own choosing and you step into leadership, even if you are not a manager.

Leadership isn’t an easy path. Expanding our reach and becoming a leader poses challenges and risks that can become real concerns for some, such as having more responsibilities. What will others think of me? Risking relationships. Making difficult decisions. Becoming a target board. Politics. It’s lonely at the top. Hence, many hesitate to step into leadership. 

Yet, there are those of us who know there are only two ways to go in life: One way is you carve your own path. The other way is to follow a path that has been carved out for you. Well, there is a third path and that is to withdraw from life. Which comes down to an old saying: “Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way.” And here is where we choose.

If you are waking up to the idea or probability of becoming a leader in your tribe, whichever type of leader you are or could be, what compels you to lead? What possibilities do you envision if you were to step into a leadership role? What impact would you like to make in this world? How can you rise to the challenge and be a bigger version of yourself?

In this Speaker Night, hear from two guest speakers who are successful and influential leaders in their corporate fields and in areas of social responsibility.
