3 Quick Tips to Make Honorable Leadership Choices

So what should you and I do about this innate problem of living honorably? How can we make honorable choices and decisions? Here are 3 tips from Lee Ellis –

1. Admit your vulnerability.

Accept the reality that you are capable of dis-honorable choices and behaviors. Admitting the problem of being human is the first step of prevention.

2. Be alert and self-monitor.

Pay attention so that you will recognize when you are starting to drift off course from your values. When you are on guard, you can correct back quickly and those early corrections are much easier to make.

3. Engage a support team to help.

The wisdom of justice is Nemo judex in causa sua – “no person can [objectively] be his own judge”. That’s why you need confidants who can help you be accountable. Without others to speak into our lives, we won’t notice the drift from the true north of our values. Others can help us realign our compass and avoid drift or make early corrections back to course.

From personal experience, I can tell you that it’s a daily battle to live and lead with honor. And if you ever assume you’ve mastered this issue, then you’ve just become very vulnerable. Read the entire article below, and please share your comments –
