The Tiny Pushes of Leadership

Printer-Friendly Format

Our latest leadership lesson comes from Helen Keller:

"I long to accomplish great and noble tasks, but it is my chief duty to accomplish humble tasks as though they were great and noble. The world is moved along, not only by the mighty shoves of its heroes, but also by the aggregate of the tiny pushes of each honest worker." Helen Keller

Often times leadership is thought of as some grand statement that is said in the heat of battle that rallies the troops to an awe-inspiring victory.

More often however, leadership occurs in tiny, seemingly trivial conversations, decisions, and actions that occur on a daily basis.

Leadership is more often found in the "tiny pushes" that Helen Keller refers to above, which can be equally as profound as the "mighty shoves" of heroes.

So as leaders, continue your frequent "tiny pushes" and occasional "mighty shoves." Remember that each are important and collectively have a big impact on where you would like to take your team.
