Leanne Pilkington: Leadership without answers
Leaders often feel pressure to have all the answers. But in challenging conditions or in times of crisis, often what people really need from their leaders is for them to acknowledge the questions. This paves the way for leaders to navigate the ebbs and flows with their people, to ride the bumps and bruises, and to arrive at the solution together. The true value is in the shared journey. Laing+Simmons CEO, REIA President and Chair of the Sister2Sister Foundation, Leanne Pilkington, says expectations of leaders have changed in recent times. Instead of expecting all the answers, people just need to know their leaders care. And this, you can’t fake.
