Welcome back to
“Irresistible Communication”.

Two minutes, twice a week.
3
:
00:00:03
No nonsense advice on
leadership communication.
4
:
00:00:10
Today, let's imagine the journey of a
visionary leader stepping in with fresh
5
:
00:00:14
ideas and an eagerness to disrupt.
6
:
00:00:17
They set bold plans to reinvent
traditional practices, leverage
7
:
00:00:22
modern tools, and shift paradigms.
8
:
00:00:25
That leader is confident, ready
to put these plans into action
9
:
00:00:29
with no second to be wasted.
10
:
00:00:31
But, there's a catch because
the team doesn't follow.
11
:
00:00:36
The leader's vision for the
destination is crystal clear.
12
:
00:00:39
However, clarity about the destination
isn't enough when the team is
13
:
00:00:44
grappling with unanswered questions,
like: why are we heading there?
14
:
00:00:49
Why is this journey ours to undertake?
15
:
00:00:52
And how do we make choices along the way?
16
:
00:00:55
These are not mere details.
17
:
00:00:57
This is a critical difference between
leading the way and lighting the path.
18
:
00:01:02
While the former sets the direction, the
latter provides clarity on the journey’s
19
:
00:01:07
purpose, the team's unique role and
the principles guiding decision-making.
20
:
00:01:13
True leadership is about fusing
vision with a shared purpose.
21
:
00:01:17
It's about ensuring, not just
movement, but meaningful progress.
22
:
00:01:22
When a team understands the
destination, grasps the significance
23
:
00:01:26
of their role and is equipped
with decision-making compasses.
24
:
00:01:30
They are not just following, they are
actively owning their part of the journey.
25
:
00:01:35
Remember, great leaders don't just lead.
26
:
00:01:38
They light the path.
27
:
00:01:39
They engage and empower and they
transform a group of individuals into
28
:
00:01:44
a united team on an inspiring journey.
29
:
00:01:48
Keep lighting the path and
share this with a friend.
