As my friend and mentor, Dr. Jacque Jacobs would point out, just because you’re driving 35 mph in the fast lane and have 15 cars behind you does not make you a leader. Leadership also requires an intentional effort towards a specific outcome. The important to take away from Maxwell’s statement is that if we want to lead, we need to be able to influence people. So, how do we influence people? The answer is simple: through the use of power. Now, power is not a dirty word, but it’ it’s not a simple one either. When I just said “power”, you probably thought about a boss, or someone that had clear hierarchical authority, but hierarchical power is only one of six different forms of power! Today we’re going to dig into all six but before we do that, I’d like to thank my friends at Kaleidoscope adventures for sponsoring today’s episode.\n\nSponsor Spot 1:When it comes to student travel, I get why it can feel like a big lift.
