To Lead you must Risk

A recent post by Lolly Daskal (President and CEO, Lead From Within) was titled 65 Quotes That Will Dare You to Do Great Things

I followed the link and took a look at the list and it WAS inspiring … but then reality came crashing in.  How on earth was I ever going to remember them all? 65 of anything is way too many!

I needed to get to the essence of the list, so I leveraged data analytics and machine learning by pouring the entire list into worldle.net.  The result is the attached word cloud.

The answer is … Leadership requires Risk!

The subtitle of Lolly’s article says it well.  “If we are to do great things, we must always be motivated to take bold risks.”

That I can remember.
