To all of the fathers and father figures out there, we want to say thank you!
This past week, the Asheville Citizen-Times spoke with our own Bill Treasurer about fatherhood, his kids, and how those things influence his work.
In the article (click here to read the full feature), Bill reminds us that we can equate leadership to parenting in a direct exchange. As leaders, we certainly don’t want to guide our employees as much as children need to be guided. At the same time, there is much we can learn from our children that can positively influence our leadership in the work sphere of our lives.
As Bill says in the article, “The best fathers [and mothers] and the best leaders try to bring out the full potential in their children or their employees.”
We want to say thank you to all of the fathers and father figures out there who are trying to bring out the best in both the children they care for and the people they lead! Connect with us on Facebook or Twitter to let us know some of the lessons your children have taught you about leadership.
