a Sunday afternoon

I've been planning a book on leadership. It would be adaptable to either education or business -- that part doesn't really interest me, though. I want to call it "Sideways Leadership" and have it anchored to my belief that people don't follow anyone or anything who doesn't empower them. I know how to build a community, I know how to empower people. Long ago, I learned that people shouldn't be made to operate from a "fear base." It's an external reaction. The more internal reaction is when someone invites you to stand alongside them to witness, jointly, the vision. That's Sideways Leadership. I have a 2nd book planned as well -- "yo misser.......notes from an urban principal." That one would be more anecdotal....centering on what I experienced and learned during my time as an urban principal.
I have to get going.
