There is a difference between just leadership and amazing leadership.  To whom much is given much is required.  As an authentic leader, it is up to us to ensure that everyone we are leading feels safe, secure, connected, and accepted.

• Authentic leaders practice self-care.  They know there is a greater purpose beyond themselves that allows them to enjoy being of service to who they lead.  They also practice self-care and create healthy boundaries so that they maintain their energy and create an environment supportive of their mission.
• Authentic leaders have a know, like, and trust factor where people want to and enjoy being around them.  These leaders know that their vibe will attract their tribe.

• Authentic leaders give grace and are forgiving of shortcomings of themselves and others.  They realize that people are just doing the best they can with the resources they have available.  When we learn better we do better; therefore, authentic leaders are the change they wish to see in the world.
