Leadership lessons from my daily commute

Lessons learned from my daily commute.

As I stated a multitude of times, leadership lessons are everywhere.  Today, as I was making my commute, I began looking around for the lessons.  There is what I learned.

1.   Leaders leave early.
2.   Leaders leave room for another driver to pull in.
3.   Leaders do not tailgate.
4.   Leaders begin slowing down the moment the traffic light turns yellow.
5.   Leaders use their turn signals.
6.   Leaders don't talk on cell phones, or text, while driving.
7.   Leaders look ahead so they can plan ahead.
8.   Leaders check on a stranded motorist make sure they are okay.  At the very least, they
      will make a call to let someone know there was a stranded motorist.
9.   Leaders wave of police officers using all of their fingers.
10. The bottom line is, leaders do the right things for the right reasons all the time.

They say the driving exposes your true character.  Are you a leader when you drive?

Have an amazing day!
