Integrity is the foundation for building strong leaders! Core values are standards or principles that guide our actions, beliefs, and decisions.
A vision is a compelling, bold future picture of where we want to be. - LeaderShape's definition of Vision
FACT 1: As each goose flaps its wings it creates an “uplift” for the birds that follow. By flying in a “V” formation, the whole flock adds 71% greater flying range than if each bird flew alone. LESSON: People who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they are going quicker and easier because they are traveling on the thrust of one another. Excerpt of "Lessons From The Geese" by Angeles Arrien
We're so much stronger when we support and make change together!
In honor of the first year Engineering held a local LeaderShape Institute Session!
LeaderShape teaches us to embrace a healthy disregard for the impossible and lean into seeing beyond limitations, but possibilities abound!
