Living and Learning Under Influence

By: Mark Goodman, Chief Marketing Officer at Vistage, is a person living and learning under the influence.

No matter where you are, ask yourself, how can your leadership reflect a more positive influence?

Always remember, consider what is right and then take action, deliver in your own unique way, whatever your role.

Living (and Learning) Under Influence

Mark notes that value-based leadership is all about identifying and being willing to stand in the gap. And there are always gaps.

He suggests pondering the capacity that we have to influence, to be influenced by others, and yet, still stand for something true, even when voices around us are pointing in another direction. To stand on pure points, the saving-people-from-a-burning-house-without-hesitation kind of pure point.

“Just do the right thing. And if people aren’t doing the right thing, you make sure they do the right thing”.
