Around the world, Monday is the perpetual recalibration of the marketplace – a collective realigning to the tasks at hand.
Brené Brown regularly interviews leaders making an impact in their community on her podcast “Dare to Lead”. Recently, in an interview with Liz Wiseman, author of the book, Multipliers. Liz mentioned there are several characteristics of being an impact player.

Leaders make change. Leaders have a large capacity for change. Leaders are ahead of the curve in their change process when they tell their team about it.
We tend to think of culture is something that just is. We think hat when you get a group of people together, whether in a country or village, family or business, the combined natures and personalities and values of those people result in a culture. But we do have some control. In fact we have way more potential to create culture than we think.
In his book, "Leaders Eat Last", Simon Sinek points out that as leaders rise higher in an organisation the volume and complexity of input information required for decision making increases.
The language of the marketplace can be competitive at its best and combative at its worst. Organizational leaders are often banging the proverbial drum to the steady march of “hit the deadline”, “seal the deal”, “capture the market share”, and “outpace the competition”.
Making good decisions is a big part of leadership, obviously. A consultant I used to know said, “Once you know the facts, the decisions jump out at you.” This is true, but it is not always easy to know the facts. In today’s complex world of global economy, political extremes, and rapid technological development, not to mention a global pandemic, it is getting tougher to get the facts together.
I did a search on “what characteristic do most people want in a leader?”. Not unexpectedly, integrity was the single trait that appeared consistently at or near the top of the list – whether put together by the illustrious Forbes or the myriad of organisations, government bodies, academics or leadership coaches out there. In my experience, every business seems to have integrity as one of its hand full of core values.
Fulfillment is an interesting concept. We talk about being fulfilled in our job or career, and what we usually mean is that we are adding value or making a difference of some kind.
One key characteristic of a leader of impact is that he or she has persisted in the face of failure, opposition, and success. Persistence in the face of success may seem incongruous, but many leaders get lazy or complacent when successful and this can lead to dire consequences. Having a clear purpose that is broad enough and specific enough will help the leader who may be tempted to veer off course.
