Effective Leadership Skills: A Lifelong Practice

In this 2023 conversation with Justine Willis Toms, leadership consultant Marguerite Callaway reminds us that our lives are filled with moments when we are asked to step into the role of leadership. Skillful leadership is needed in all aspects of our everyday lives and is not exclusive to a business environment. Being skilled at leadership includes self-discipline, self-awareness, and emotional intelligence. Whether or not we’re employed full-time, these skills continue to be needed to enhance our effectiveness whether we’re running a household, participating in a church group, belonging to an activist group in your community, or the many other groups in which we participate.
