Leading others requires going first. It can be intimidating, but it’s necessary. Going first as a leader holds multiple gains for your business. It’s exhilarating. It leads to innovation and talent retention, but more importantly it’s a path to a better future, and you’re invited to join in.
“The time and context in which we’re living felt to me like a call-up to the A team,” says Daniel Taylor, CEO of AMP, “even if I wasn’t sure I had all the experience or background to build the massive vision we’re working toward with AMP. It’s time for all of us to ‘go first’ in our respective ways.
"No one's actually the 'first' - we live in a community of several billion people,” says Nina Tandon, CEO of EpiBone, Inc. “And yet, every moment is new. The dots that can be connected at a given space-time moment are always new.” In the Me dimension, going first is good for you as an individual. It improves your holistic wellbeing.
Leaders of cutting-edge, purpose-driven companies, like Joey Bergstein, formerly Seventh Generation, and Stuart Landsberg of Grove Collective in the consumer goods space, and Geeta Ayer and Andrei Cherny in finance, recognize that going first leads to innovation. And they’re keenly aware that their businesses’ potential relies on creative, continuous improvement of what they do and how they do it.
Chanel Cathey, CEO of CJC Insights, has felt the importance of always being yourself as a path to change: “I’m just running my own race. I’m not looking around to see what everyone else is doing, focusing on what I love, and how can I do that. I want to normalize credible black leadership so that no one else has to walk into the room and get asked for coffee.”
First of all, most of them didn't get fired. Secondly, it is deeply satisfying to know you’re living in integrity. In a world like today’s, the only path to sustainable business success is by going first. So many elements about the way we work are broken. If you're not going first, you're certainly not innovating, and you won’t survive these tumultuous times.
