Everyday Leadership

Never underestimate the influence and impact you may have on others. Leadership moments occur every day, sometimes when you may not be aware of them.

Drew Dudley, founder of Nuance Leadership Development Services, talks about the unknown influence he had on an under classman in college. He contends that leadership moments are not reserved for only those with legendary leadership status or extensive experience. Rather he dares us all to embrace our roles as leaders and reminds us that leadership moments happen every day by simple acts, many of which we are not aware of, that positively influence the lives of others.

There’s only six billion understandings of it, and if you change one person’s understanding of it, one person’s understanding of what they’re capable of, one person’s understanding of how much people care about them, on person’s understanding of how powerful an agent for change they can be in this world, you’ve changed the whole thing. And if we can understand leadership like that…we can change everything. ”
