When I was working
for a large beverage company,
a mentor taught me
about ‘The Shadow Of The Leader.’
The leader of
a company, organization, country
influences everyone
around her.
Her followers are
a reflection of her leadership,
her ideals, her beliefs,
her behavior.
One of my writing buddies
constantly complains.
She is surrounded by readers (customers)
and business partners
who complain.
One of my other writing buddies
is a happy, optimistic person.
She is surrounded by
happy, optimistic readers
and business partners.
If we don’t like
the behavior or vibe
of the people around us,
we should consider looking at
our own behavior or vibe.
