Great leaders are those who demonstrate a passion for learning and growing. If the appetite is there, significant lessons can be found from numerous places and sources, including from other leaders, books and nature itself. Author and Leadership Trainer Rosemarie Downer discusses her book, Leaders Are Like Giraffes: Leadership Lessons from a Most Unlikely Teacher.


Highlights include:
Insight into how the giraffe serves as a powerful metaphor for leadership, emphasizing key traits such as vision, resilience, and adaptability.
19 characteristics of the giraffe.
Effective leaders must be able to stand tall in the face of adversity, remain steady amid uncertainty, and lead with clarity and conviction.
Leaders must be willing to “stick their necks out,” taking calculated risks and embracing change while also fostering strong connections with their teams.
Great leaders focus on influence rather than manipulation, mentor others toward independence, and lead with authenticity rather than seeking constant validation.
She also touches on the importance of continuous growth, mentorship, and maintaining integrity.
