I believe strongly in leading by example. If you want your team to act with integrity, you must exhibit it too. If you want your team to innovate, you must open your mind to different ideas and be willing to listen to them.
Leadership has never been more important to the accounting profession than it is today. With an ever-evolving landscape, and hurdles to overcome that the profession hasn’t seen before, we all must take an active role in highlighting the opportunities our profession can provide. Leadership encompasses expertise in subject matter areas, making decisions…for our teams, clients, ourselves and future generations, having interpersonal skills to further develop relationships, being able to resolve conflict and, maybe most importantly, having courage to not be satisfied with the status quo! Effective leadership will continue to mold the accounting profession in to an exciting and rewarding career path for all!
Leadership begins with a commitment to continuous learning and growth—seeking wisdom from others while striving to improve yourself. It means going last when others want to go first and stepping forward when others are hesitant to change or take action. True leadership inspires people to become the best version of themselves and helps them uncover and achieve their goals and dreams. It’s about leading by example, adapting, and growing, while staying humble enough to recognize you don’t have all the answers—and knowing that asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Leadership is a function of seven BIG IDEAS: Serve Others, Be Generous, Have Integrity, Create Community, Pursue Excellence, Exhibit Graciousness, and Understand Hope. The IDEA that resonates with me the most is Understand Hope. Hope has an author who provides us with the power to believe that anything is possible. Hope is knowing that the circumstances we face are temporary, opportunities we encounter are endless, and as long as we believe, anything can happen!
