Visionary Leadership

Visionary Leadership
Posted By: Jon C. on August 10, 2007


"The most pathetic person in the world is someone who has sight but no vision."

- Hellen Keller

I found this interesting post about leadership and wanted to share.

http://theamericanleadersorganization.blog...

John F. Kennedy said, "our problems are manmade. Therefore, they can be solved by man." When you wake up in the morning, you're probably not thinking very much past getting out of bed and going through your daily routine. Maybe you've got a big project due, a long workout ahead, or a rough day coping with a loss. Above it all though, remember one important thing: don't let your vision down.



Jonathan Swift defines it for us: "Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others." No matter what your field is--medicine, farming, sports, business, government--you and the people who count on you will benefit from your strong vision. And it's as simple as saying, "I am going to eat healthy." That is a vision. Your plan to implement it might differ, but it's a vision nonetheless. Another vision might be, "I am going to cure disease X." No matter how far-fetched your vision is, pursue it. The world needs you to help keep it alive.

If we all develop our visions today, America will be in great shape as the leaders of the next generation take charge. We're going to need courage, we're going to need intellect, we're going to need compassion, and we're even going to need a little bit of cunning to lead America in the years ahead.

But when we realize that we must learn from the mistakes of the past; when we work for a better world; when we each take a stand for one another and lead together--
