Are you pulling your business, or steering it? 🚣♂️
In most sports, leaders take the frontline. But in traditional boat racing, the real direction is dictated entirely from the back.
Watching the Malabar Jalolsavam unfold on the Kuppam River right behind my backyard offers a powerful masterclass in leadership:
Momentum belongs to the team: Give your people the trust, tools, and speed to execute fearlessly upfront.
Direction belongs to the leader: Stand back, keep your eye on the horizon, and steady the boat (Lead from behind).
If the steersman loses focus, even 100 rowers working at full capacity won’t reach the finish line.
👉 In your current business journey, are you:
A) Exhausting yourself by pulling everything from the front?
B) Empowering your team and leading from behind?
