164 The Unlock Moment Box of Keys #27: Why Leadership Isn't About Being Liked
Manage episode 501134786 series 3334035
Leadership isn’t about being liked, though most great leaders are likeable. The difference is that their likeability comes from credibility and respect, not from chasing approval. In this Box of Keys episode, I explore why trying to lead by being liked almost always backfires, and why boundaries are essential for both children and teams.
Leaders need to separate tough decisions from personal feelings, resisting the pull to be manipulated by emotions or the desire to be popular. Because when you build authority first, genuine likeability tends to follow.
So where are the moments you’re most tempted to prioritise being liked over doing the right thing ... and how do you handle them?
