The kind of leadership I am still learning to practise

Leadership came into my life before I had a formal philosophy for it. I kept accepting responsibility and trying to help things work better.

A title may give someone a seat at the table, but it does not automatically give them trust.

People need to feel heard

Some of the most useful things I have done began with a conversation.

I am still learning to balance kindness with boundaries, confidence with humility and urgency with patience.
