Leading in Context

JULY 24, 2024

By Linda Fisher Thornton Ethical leaders are not easily pulled off course – they stay focused on the values that are important to good leadership. They realize that they are influencing others, and they perceive that as both a privilege and a responsibility.

To better mold your goals to your stage in life and what’s important to you, work through a four-step process that breaks your goals into values and definitions of success.
