Street Lights – As I was talking my lunchtime walk today, I noticed the streetlights. From their high vantage point, they cast their light across a wide area. It wouldn’t make sense to put them low to the ground. People wouldn’t be able to see as clearly. It’s the same thing with sharing your company’s (or department’s or club’s or church’s) visions and goals. Some leaders like to tell their lieutenants and let the message filter down that way. But the people at the end of the line are getting the vision from sidewalk mounted street lights. They don’t really get to see very much at all. Just like the street lights, you are highly placed in your organization. So the next time you need to get a message out, try to envision where the light has to come from. It might be you!
