All honor and respect is due to the Sherpa. Their example of leadership we hold in the highest regard. The Sherpa are the real heroes on the mountain as they have to be able to climb all while helping others reach the summit. In this episode we discuss the parallel between you as a leader and these incredible champions. Are you leading yourself, but also leading others at the same time?
The Sherpa Metaphor
There are a lot of examples of good leadership: teacher to student, coach to athlete, parent to child, etc. At GiANT, we searched the world over for a metaphor that would accurately describe the healthiest, most impactful type of leader in order to aspire team leaders to become intentional - the type of leader who is not only self-aware and performing at the highest levels, but also who intentionally passes on their expertise to those they lead so they too can become the highest performers.
The exercise from Episode 1 is called The 100X Leader Assessment. If you're serious about becoming a great leader, be honest and open about where you are as a leader, and get ready to start a leadership journey to become an intentional leader worth following.
