Tim Tebow said, "Don't be normal. Be an example."
John Maxwell said, "A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way."
Leadership is demonstrated, not just heard.
You lead through your actions and behaviors.
Leading by example is not about your title or position, it's about your behavior.
• It means demonstrating your values.
• It means demonstrating the right behaviors.
• It means doing the right thing.
Great leaders set the standard and embody that standard.
You inspire and motivate when you lead by example because you show others what it means to believe in their own potential.
