Best believe you’re a leader! According to Michele Brown, Executive Leadership Coach, the best leaders have certain characteristics. Great leaders have a high awareness of their team dynamics and relationships styles. They are capable of adapting their approach in communicating and creating connections with others as means to work together. Great leaders are also flexible and exude a growth mindset! This gives leaders an advantage when dealing with large groups or teams who may be experiencing conflict or communication issues. They focus on the “bigger picture” and are capable of helping others do so during intense moments in sports.
