| Book summary of a 60 second leadership |
In this chapter, the author talks about his past incident when he was on a cruise ship on his way to Hubbard Bay, Alaska.
So, what was it all about? Let's find out.
The ship was getting into nasty weather and power of influence was about to take a toll on him. He headed from breakfast straight to business meeting. He was in an auditorium watching the guy on stage as the curtain swayed, behind him.
All people from audience running out with their hands covering their mouth. The author was watching them and trying to control himself. You know what I mean 😉 some pep talk like he is fine, no problem, think good thoughts and all that stuff.
So, what happened to author? Did he??? You know what I mean to say 😅
Yes, He was sick too, laying in the shower for a while. The funny part was half of the ship was doing the same thing.😲😂
Was he really sick??? Not sure.
The influence of those around him, coupled with thoughts of greasy breakfast and darn swaying curtain got him.
Key Lesson:- Influence is extremely powerful. We are influencing others and they are influencing us.
Conclusion:- Become good Influencer.
Watch out your Association.
Become a great Leader.
For Leaders:- How are you being influenced?
Who are you influencing?
Are you giving your people permission to be lazy, take shortcuts, not follow through
OR
They are being inspired to be tenacious, kind, patience and keep their words.
