Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites - Teachers Versus Leaders - Who Wins?

Think back to the best teacher you ever had. Why did you value them so much when you were in their class, and why do they spring to mind for you now?

Chances are, it’s their approach to teaching. Anyone can stand in front of a room and tell you what to do, over and over again until you memorize it and can do it. The best teacher doesn’t teach a thing or a behavior, they understand where the student is and share the vision of how to get where that student wants to go. That’s an individualized approach to learning that invites questions, experimentation, and celebrates failures along the way to ultimate success.

Now, think about the best person you ever worked for – why were they such a good leader? In the same way great teachers illuminate the pathway to success, so do great leaders. Great leaders don’t expect their team members to show up, shut up and do the job – they expect them to grow and flourish in their jobs, eventually growing into new jobs of their own choosing. Even when it means the leader might lose a team member to a better position, great leaders encourage that.

If you’re not working for a great leader, go find one to work for. If you are a leader, how great are you, and how great do you want to be?
