Eager to Learn?

Dear Uncommon Leaders, 

Hope you've all had a great weekend and are enjoying your summer! Be on the lookout this week for those around you that are eager to learn! Have an uncommon week!

Your Sunday Nugget

This Week's Question:

Who around you is hungry to learn?

This Week's Challenge: 

Because you are reading this, I assume you are someone who is hungryto grow as a leader. Unfortunately, sometimes we encounter “leaders” who are just not very hungry to learn and develop themselves. When you pour time and energy into someone like this, it can be frustrating… but when someone is eager to learn, listen and grow, well that’s exciting!

Often, we are looking for a variety of skills to determine the next upcoming leader, but we under-emphasize the eagerness to grow and learn. Who around you is curious and has a desire to learn?

Your challenge this week is to look for the eager learners to help identify possible upcoming leaders in your organization. If someone genuinely wants to learn, that is a great sign they have potential.

P.S. How eager are you to learn this week? 😀

This Week's Quote to Ponder:

“Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.” Henry Ford

Until next week,

LET'S GO BE UNCOMMON!
