Economist John Kenneth Galbraith once said that “all of the
great leaders have had one characteristic in common: it was the willingness to
confront unequivocally the major anxiety of their people in their time. This,
and not much else, is the essence of leadership.”
We all have our anxieties to
bear. For some it is a decision we need to make. For others it is a habit we
need to break.
Whatever the anxiety is, we have to confront it, if we want to
overcome it.
That is what it means to lead!
