Kevin Eikenberry
As a leader, there will be times when achievements are made, goals are reached and the spotlight will shine in your direction.

What traits separate a leader from a manager?
SHRM
Managers who don't develop leadership skills may be hobbling their career growth.
Whether it's an inability to persuade or inspire others, craft strategy or engage with team members emotionally, bosses who ignore their weaknesses risk getting stuck at the lower end of the management ladder — unless they learn how to tap into the traits it takes to become a high-level leader.

You don't have to choose: Win at work and succeed in life
Michael Hyatt
Have you ever found yourself facing an impossible choice? Either win at work — at the expense of your health and relationships — or succeed at life, sacrificing your career goals. For years, I thought there was no other option. I spent almost all of my time at work. Late nights, weekends, all in an effort to achieve more and get ahead in my career. Time with my family was always cut short. My health was pushed down on the priority list. Friendships were put on the backburner. Until it all finally reached a crisis point.

4 guiding principles to improve collaboration among leadership teams
Forbes
In an ever more complex and information-overloaded world, teaming up to collaborate is key to learning, innovating and performing. We tend to misunderstand groups of people who report to one person as teams. When there is no need to work together to learn and achieve results, we should be OK being a group of direct reports without needing to call ourselves a team. A group of people can still offer some of the benefits that working in a team does.

Skip Prichard
Meandering from point to point is not a coherent strategy, and yet it is far too prevalent in many organizations. Leaders often struggle with creating a compelling vision, leaving it to chance or crafting lofty statements that mean little.

Online education is not new, but it has been slow to be embraced by vocational schools, especially for the Fire and EMS industry. Students enroll in online school for the increased flexibility and cost savings offered by doing coursework at home - or at the station!
So how can such a hands-on discipline successfully be taught with the instructor and student in different cities?

Why too much passion is bad for your leadership
Lolly Daskal
To keep up with the development and growth of the leaders I coach, I do an annual assessment of their leadership with my clients and with the people they lead. Last year, I heard an interesting bit of feedback in one of these sessions: "At times, his passion is great, but most of the time, it"s overwhelming." I'd never before considered the possibility of a leader having too much passion.
