When Leadership Stops Being About You
Picture a CEO on his first day in the corner office, frantically searching for a plunger because the executive bathroom toilet is clogged. That humbling moment-Richard Stearns trying to fix a toilet without anyone knowing-captures something profound about leadership we've forgotten. We've built an entire industry around leadership "secrets," productivity hacks, and success formulas. Yet what if the most transformative leadership insight isn't a technique at all, but a complete surrender of ego? This isn't another book promising to make you a better boss by Friday. It's a challenge to everything our culture teaches about power, success, and what it means to lead. At a time when headlines overflow with corporate scandals and abuses of authority, this approach offers something radical: leadership that matters not because it wins, but because it transforms-starting with the leader themselves. Here's an uncomfortable truth: most of us have confused our careers with our calling. We treat our job title like our identity, our company's mission like our life's purpose. But there's a deeper assignment underneath all the meetings and deadlines. Think of it like being an undercover agent-your career is just your cover story. Your real mission? Bringing the values of compassion, integrity, and justice into whatever space you occupy. This isn't about preaching in the break room or putting Bible verses in your email signature. It's about embodying a different way of being that makes people curious.
