Are you striving to be as successful as your boss? That’s a great goal, but does it mean you should lead like them? Not necessarily.

What makes them successful may depend on strengths or circumstances entirely different from your own. Focusing on imitating them could cause you to dwell on perceived weaknesses rather than your unique strengths.

As Albert Einstein famously said:

“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree,
it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”

Authentic leadership isn’t about copying someone else’s style. It’s about understanding and embracing your unique strengths, values, and purpose.

What works for your boss may not work for you, and trying to imitate them could not only hold you back, but also stop you from achieving greater success.

🔹  Observe one leader you admire today. Rather than focusing on what they do differently, note what aspects of their leadership resonate with you.

• Do they lead with empathy, decisiveness, or innovation?

• Which of these qualities can you experiment with today in your own unique way?
