#Beingaleader means you have to act the opposite of others many times. Counterintuitive. Against the grain. Often without explanation. Lead.
Is someone being mean? Be nice. Is someone angry? Be calming. Is someone rushing ahead and making mistakes? Slow down and have a conversation. You will find that often people are reactive. You need to be proactive. Getting ahead of the situation whenever possible and providing the guidance that is required. Lead.
Not so much a knee jerk reaction to do the opposite of those on your team but understanding the temperature of the room or the people and how to direct it in the right direction. Checking emotion at the door. Knowing how to bring balance to the situation. Lead.
Show your wisdom. Your maturity. Your abilities to get things done during difficult circumstance. Lead.
#Beingaleader means you have to act the opposite. Be ready to be different. Lead.
