Leadership lessons from Liz Cheney

Leadership lessons from Liz Cheney

In this chat I talk about two very rare qualities of a leader, values and courage.

Whether you agree with her politics or not, over the past several months, Liz Cheney has demonstrated two very rate and elusive qualities all great leaders must have and those being, values and courage.

Ms. Cheney was elected to the U.S. House of representative in 2016 on a conservative platform of restoring America’s strength and power in the world, and pursuing conservative solutions to create jobs, cut taxes and regulation, and expand America’s energy, mining and agriculture industries.

Ms. Cheney also values truth and the rule of law. In the recent months, she began voicing her opposition to the former President and in her mind she believed that the former President was not being truthful nor following the Rule of Law as defined by the U.S. Constitution. Continuing to voice those beliefs, she was subsequently removed from her leadership position as the GOP House Conference Chair.

In this chat, I share the importance of having values, but also, the courage to be congruent with those values when something personal is at risk.

Think about most leaders you interact with. Do you know what they stand for? Are their values clear? If they are, do they have to courage to stick to those values when things get tough and there becomes a personal risk to them for standing by those values?

In this chat, I talk about the importance of having clear values and beliefs, and then having the courage and fortitude to live those values in a congruent way.
