Proverbs 12:18 (MSG) Rash language cuts and maims, but there is healing in the words of the wise.
In his book, Leadership Without Easy Answers, Harvard professor Ronald Heifetz posits that the role of leadership is changing: the new role is “to help people face reality and to mobilized them to make change.”
Change has been a hot topic recently and change is at least painful and at worst potentially destructive. Positive change in our relationships takes intentionality. The wise leader recognizes the various impacts of change on the team and speaks words that heal by creating value and meaning for each person experiencing the change.
Are you leading with words that heal or maim?
