Tell A Story
• Emotions are not Facts• Use a metaphor• Invite them to join you on a journey• Share your vision
• Leadership is about a vision, not a task, project or even objective

Value Others
• Raise the value of the whole team• Encourage others to value you, by
showing that you value them• You can’t raise yourself up by keeping
others down.• A Players hire A+ players; B Players hire
C players.

Dancing Leader
![Page 16: Take a Step Up From coder to leader. Special Thanks Special thanks to Alan Stevens, developer and speaker extraordinaire. for letting me rip off much](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649ef25503460f94c0407b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
What?
• It was the 1st follower that transformed the lone nut job into a leader.
• There is NO movement without the first follower.
• If everyone was the leader, that would be really ineffective.
• The BEST way to make a movement, if you really care, is to courageously follow and show others how to follow.

First Followers
• Being the first (or even just an early) follower is an under-appreciated form of leadership.
• New followers emulate other followers, not the leader.

Change isn’t easy
• Be willing and prepared to stand out
• Be confident in your ability, but humbled by your support and followers
