Nate’s Notes 221: The Best Leaders Lead From the Heart | Mark C. Crowley

I love Mark’s message that the best leaders lead from the heart. They care about people, they support people, they trust people, and they have their best interest at heart.

And I thought Mark made a really interesting point that we admire coaches who show that they love their players. But the conventional business leaders shy away from this type of heart-led leadership.

Yet when we think about the best leaders we know, the ones who we’ll run through a brick wall for, they’re the ones who truly love us. The best leaders lead from the heart.

It’s a simple idea. Please take it seriously.
