whose dream am i fulfilling?
During some leadership conversation yesterday centered around John Maxwell's: "Developing the Leaders Around You" an interesting question was raised from the book.When someone works for you, or is on your team: Are you helping to fulfill their dream or your dream?
I would hope their is some buy-in and overlap, but that is a great question to wrestle with. I pray that it's both, but at times I have hire only for the latter.
I think this is the difference between a long time, trusted person on the team, and someone who comes and goes and is not very effective.
Their dream should also be their "calling," and when the two collide...watch out!
