The Art of Leading When No One Has to Say Yes
Leadership is about inspiring and guiding others, whether in for-profit or non-profit settings. The speaker shares their experience teaching a leadership class to officers at a military base, emphasizing the art of leading when no one has to say yes. This involves collaboration, vision, and persuading others to volunteer their time. The skills learned are highly relevant as millennials enter the workforce, valuing collaborative spirit. The speaker suggests that volunteer organizations offer valuable leadership lessons, as there is no authority granted by a paycheck, requiring the use of people skills to motivate volunteers effectively.
