Takeaways:
Facing Obstacles:
“If I am not leading well or if I don't lead these folks well, it impacts their family, it impacts their kids. And it might even impact the generation.”
Lem’s Final Thoughts:
Lead out of who you are. You lead out of your personality, you lead out of your history, you lead out of your family sculpture, family of origin stuff, you lead out of your trauma and pain, you lead out of your weaknesses, and you lead out of your strengths. And if you're not doing the work of getting to know yourself, you're not growing your effectiveness as a leader, you just aren't. And so it takes courage and humility to do this work—to become better because it's facing yourself and making some huge changes and that takes courage and humility to lead yourself so that you can lead and be effective as a leader.
