Adrien Lewis, the founder of CarePortal, draws parallels between the decision-making processes in Jiu Jitsu and leadership. He believes leaders, especially social entrepreneurs, must constantly decide when to take action or remain patient.
Two crucial principles for effective leadership are courage and humility. Courage pushes leaders to take risks, even when uncertain of the outcome, while humility allows them to recognize and admit their mistakes. Leading with these principles not only enhances their decision-making but also empowers their teams.
By demonstrating vulnerability and embracing their flaws, leaders can diminish their team's fear of failure. This, in turn, unlocks immense potential within individuals, as they feel more at ease to take risks and innovate. Adrien has firsthand experienced the transformative power of being a courageous yet humble leader.
