We’re continuing a new series on the 4 C’s of Strategic Leadership, and today we’re talking about the second C: Competence. Last week we talked about the importance of character and how who you are and how you act are critical in gaining trust and setting the foundation for your influence. This week, we continue that theme in talking about competence and the importance of what you know, what you’ve mastered, what you’re willing to learn, and what you’re able to contribute.
