“Sometimes the most important thing a leader can do to strenghten the relationship with the people he or she is leading is to momentarily step out of the role leader. When people are given a glimpse of the man or woman underneath leadership’s mask, they become more committed to the leader when the mask goes on.”
In this article, you will experience the encounter an employee and his boss have that shows the vulnerability of the boss.
“To build the type of trust that carries teams to win the championship to develop the type of loyalty that’s unshakeable, the only way to foster this type of culture is through vulnerability.” The article focuses on a conversation between two co-workers discussing leadership style and communication in relation to vulnerability.
“Vulnerability is taking a risk, stepping into the emotional unknown, and exposing who you really are. You’re comfortable showing your deficits as well as your assets.” The traits of leadership are explored in this article as well as its connection to shame and being insecure.
An interview is conducted in this article with Brene Brown, research professor and author of Daring Greatly: How the Courage to Be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent and Lead who “talks about how’s she has been able to embrace her own vulnerability, shares a story of an entrepreneur who dared greatly to achieve success and explains how vulnerability really works in our society.”
