Early in in my leadership days, I used to hide my care behind formality – thinking leaders needed to be tough first, kind later. But real life taught me otherwise.
I once visited a staff member who lost a parent. I sat with him silently. No advice. No solutions. Just presence. Later, he told me that moment changed how he saw leadership.
In a recent LiftCulture session, a participant said, “We’ve forgotten how to care because we are always rushing.” That struck with me deeply, because I lived that reality too.
Care is not soft. Care is strength. Care is leadership with soul.
Reflection: How can you show care today to someone carrying a silent burden?
