Leadership History Lesson for January 21st
On this day in leadership history in 1997, Newt Gingrich was fined as the U.S. House of Representatives voted for first time in history to discipline its leader for ethical misconduct.
What���s the leadership lesson? In Lee Ellis��� book, ���Engage with Honor���, the last step of the Courageous Accountability Model is to ���Closeout: Celebrate or Confront���. Honorable leaders know the importance of both celebrating an achievement (celebrate) or giving correction (confront) when needed. ��They are both thoughtful leadership decisions in the long run.
