True leaders are hard workers.
True hard workers aren’t necessarily leaders.
I’ve come across amazingly hard workers, limitless talent, friendly as can be, love getting stuff done…and they need a guide, a leader to prompt and shepherd them. They are workers and every team needs workers. It’s vital.
I’ve come across leaders who were leading, but had no idea they were leading. They steer the ship, delegate, follow up, have a big vision…and they need help, a lot of help and unity in order to pull anything off. The leaders need to wake up, recognize themselves as leaders, and also let others recognize them as such.
There’s beauty and power in recognizing the difference and identifying which category you fall into, as well as your fellow band members, and also the rest of the members of your team.
p.s. If you have the guts to talk about this stuff with people around you, your band dudes or your team, you are probably a leader.
