First Leadership Experience

When asked about one’s first leadership experience, most of us would probably spend some time digging through our memories growing up as it may not be a very significant event in our lives. Some may also say that their first leadership experiences were not exactly crucial in their leadership journey.

Turns out, it actually is. Connie Lee; Head of Leaderonomics Youth, shares why early leadership experiences are important and how we can create first ones for others?

“Take your first few years, as years of observation and observe how your colleagues interact with one another, how they interact with their bosses, and how good leaders are really able to motivate their teams.”
