It’s a marathon

Leadership is not a sprint, it's a marathon.

Fun fact: I’m not a runner, but last week’s Boston Marathon got me thinking.

Like running a marathon, effective leadership requires strategy and a long view.

It's about pacing yourself and being resilient in the face of obstacles.

It's about enduring challenges along the way.

And bouncing back from unexpected setbacks.

Like a runner, you need to be strategic in how you get to your desired outcome.

In the end, leadership is not about a quick sprint to the finish line.

It's about creating a strategy that guides and inspires others toward achieving shared goals.
