What is it that makes some leaders remarkably better than others? The most successful authentic leaders are like water, instead of being powerful they are essential. When they leave organizations, others follow them even to competitors. When they leave prematurely, teams get dehydrated, morale dries up, and entire departments and organizations collapse. Just like water, they are essential. Can you name one living thing that can survive without water? Today’s successful companies and organizations also cannot survive without authentic leaders. Since nothing can survive without water, it’s imperative that we learn from water.
