No Leadership Here

Daily writing prompt
Do you see yourself as a leader?

Generally speaking no, not at all. Sometimes, I don’t necessarily make the best choices for myself. And the thought of other people having to suffer the consequences of my unfortunate decision making….let’s toss that idea into the bin right quick! I am grateful to all the women and men, who are willing to take on leadership roles, as well as the attached responsibility. Some people were born to lead, but I am clearly not one of them.
I’ve been given a leadership role [involuntarily!] at work a few times. The projects and tasks to be completed turned out okay, because I made everyone in my team feel equally valuable and responsible for the outcome. In my understanding I was hosting our meetings, rather than leading anyone.
