Morning Leaders. One of the sadder things I have experienced on a project is when the Leader is more concerned with minimizing any and all risk so they don’t have any chance of looking bad as opposed to making the project as amazing as possible. They are content with an average, non-spectacular, project that doesn’t bring too much attention because they are afraid of any possibility of losing their job. They have no spirit of excellence and their creativity is usually as flashy as an acorn.
Their personal agenda of insecurity and fear keeps the project locked in a very bland box. Furthermore it frustrates the team working with that Leader because they often hear “NO” when it comes to sharing new ideas.
Please don’t be this kind of Leader. #ExcellenceOverFear
