All Great Leaders Play Any Position

The best leaders are willing to play any position.

Regardless of what their "rank" or "status" is within a company, organization, or team...

They can and will execute on any task when necessary.

It doesn't matter whether it's taking out the trash...

Answering a customer service call...

Directing a meeting in front of hundreds, or even thousands of people...

Packing a box...

Building relationships with customers...

Or negotiating a billion dollar contract...

They will always do it if it needs to get done.

People will argue that it’s not the best way to spend your time or resources…

…and yeah I guess that’s true if you are looking at it short term…

…but long term, what’s the benefit of having a team that respects you and kicks ass day in and day out because they know you’re willing to get your hands dirty anytime it’s required?

…what’s the long term value of a team that respects you and the mission?

The truth is… most leaders make that argument because they don’t want to jump in and work.

Know this…

There is no better way to influence and motivate people than to show that you aren’t above doing any job yourself.

Want to earn the respect of your team?

Hop in the trenches alongside them once in a while.

This is the #1 thing that separates weak leaders from great leaders.

Get in there, sweat, struggle, and work with your team…

…it’s one investment you can’t afford to pass on.
