Leaders today don't need more information to succeed; they need perspective. We all know about the importance of playing by the rules, and the value of being fair and ethical. But knowing these things is not enough. We need to consistently put these ideals into action and we need to see them working successfully. Each one of us is a leader. Whether we fill the role of parent, neighbor, friend, community member, employee, volunteer, or partner, every day we have an opportunity, sometimes even an obligation, to lead. We learn by example, and we look to our leaders for examples in action. Consider the roles we play in our personal lives. In virtually all of them, we are leaders to someone. We lead by our actions, behaviors, and attitudes-whether we are aware of it or not. The simple act of helping a stranger, smiling, or even saying thank you are all examples of leading. We constantly influence others yet we rarely stay conscious of it. We are all leaders.
