You can?t lead until you take command of yourself and lead yourself. Personal leadership is a cornerstone of high performing individuals. To this you must have a life plan as well as training plan. To be able to lead is special; it involves responsibility to yourself and others. Sometimes the most difficult aspect of leading the criticism that is inherent in the job. No one knows what it is like until you walk in those shows. You can?t be popular with everyone and you must stand up for you believe in.
