I am so delighted to introduce you to my new blog “Elegant Leadership” that will be posted at http://blog.ceoptions.com/ after the New Year. Since I love to write I will have a more personal blog at www.sylvialafair.com to include thoughts and ideas about relationships, health, and education, as well as business.
Elegant Leadership will include all my newest research concerning leadership. I will suggest the best books, articles, and unique individuals I can find to help you on the difficult daily journey of being the best leader you can be.
Why did I choose the title “elegant leadership”? I honestly think it chose me. I woke up with the term, like a drum beat, repeating over and over in my head. Maybe I had a dream about it, not sure. All I know is, I love the word “elegant” as it is used in scientific realms. In nature elegant signifies finding the simplest and most precise way of responding.
I looked up the other definitions of the word and they fit my intended blog perfectly. Elegant signifies dignified richness and grace; being luxurious in a restrained, tasteful manner; incisiveness and ingenuity, cleverly apt and simple, as in “an elegant solution to a complex problem”.
What the world needs now are truly elegant leaders who want their work to speak for them, rather than be the media show of the week. They are the ones who quietly find the best solutions without the need for trumpets blaring. They do not have to play “king” they merely want to make their businesses the best they can be and be socially responsible to this only home of a planet we have.
An elegant leader is one like Jeffrey Immelt, CEO of General Electric who has chosen to forgo his quite hefty bonus as being more than he needs, and this is done without a segment to explain himself on CNN. An elegant leader is Bob Sutton, author of “The No Asshole Rule” who teaches at Stanford and with humor and a razor sharp perspective helps his students question the status quo so bully bosses can become a thing of the past. Gandhi was an elegant leader who, with little in the way of financial backing, helped to change the direction of nations.
My hope is that we will all become elegant leaders with dignified richness and grace, not in need of the spotlight, just in need of doing good, creative work to make this world a more user friendly place to work and play.
