Your Friday reminder

It’s easy to lead when there’s alignment.

When your team is excited.
When the direction is clear and the steps feel safe.

But the real work of leadership often begins when resistance shows up:

When your team is stuck in a comfortable but outdated way of operating.
When hard conversations need to happen.
When change is necessary, but not yet popular.

The great leaders I work with don’t shy away from this.

They invite discomfort.
They hold steady through ambiguity.
They help their teams imagine what’s possible and then take steps toward it.

Not because it’s easy.

But because it’s right.
