Most of the time, we find it hard to fathom how that person managed to land the role they&#8217;re in. Can we replace them? Would we be good leaders? The American author <a href=\"https:\/\/bregmanpartners.com\/resources\/\">Peter Bregman<\/a> wrote a new recipe for being a great leader. In fact, it&#8217;s a good way for us to sense check ourselves to see if we have what it takes to become a leader. We can ask ourselves three simple questions, all centred around the letter C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong>1. Confidence<\/strong>. <\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you trust yourself? We&#8217;re not talking about ambition and presumption, but rather something much more subtle: the ability to be able to <strong>Care for ourselves<\/strong>. It&#8217;s impossible to be confident when we constantly need the approval of others. We can solidify our position when we&#8217;re kind and tolerant with ourselves, especially when nobody else is validating what we&#8217;re doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Are you a confident leader that knows how to care for yourself when you need to?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong>2. Connection.<\/strong> <\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Do people sense your trust, even when you don&#8217;t agree with each other? It&#8217;s about being open to others, encouraging others to be themselves, even when they do things differently to us. Good leaders cultivate a<strong> Curiosity that keeps their ears and eyes open, stopping them from rushing to conclusions about others.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Are you a leader that knows how to be curious about others?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong>3. Courage<\/strong>. <\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Can you take risks? A good leader is a person who takes risks, on the basis of their trust and openness with others.<br><strong>Taking risks means going beyond your comfort zone. It means allowing yourself to become vulnerable indefinitely<\/strong>. Courage is an emotional dimension. It&#8217;s about being open to discomfort to explore new paths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Are you a courageous leader, not because of your strength, but because of your willingness to be vulnerable?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you answered yes to all these questions, you deserve to know that behind those words \u2013 Care, Curiosity and Courage \u2013 the root is the same: they all come from the word \u201ccor\u201d, which in Sanskrit&nbsp; means \u201cheart\u201d. Yes, <strong>Care, Curiosity and Courage are all talents of the hearth. <a href=\"https:\/\/lifeed.io\/en\/2021\/01\/25\/we-need-strong-leaders-that-stay-close-to-their-people\/\">To be a good leader, you need to follow your heart.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What makes a great leader?
