Best of Blogs: Peronal Leadership Insight by Rhett Laubach

Personal Leadership Insight is one of Rhett Laubach's two blogs. Rhett is an author, speaker, coach and trainer and the founder of YourNextSpeaker.

He says Personal Leadership Insight is about finding meaning as a leader in your private and public life and focuses on helping leaders develop the ability to positively influence people and situations to create value and growth.

One of the things I like about Rhett is that he offers thoughts for student leaders. Not only students of leadership (like you and me), but student leaders on campuses and in school building across the country (in fact these future leaders are a major part of Rhett's writing and his business). Rhett wrote this post in March geared toward student leaders, but I think it applies to every single one of us (you could easily take student out of the title):

Vision: Three Giant Leaps Every Great Student Leader Takes
by Rhett Laubach (March 4, 2008)

Everyone knows great student leaders live life differently than the average Joe. However, not everyone knows how they do it. The three giant jumps is about a few of those differences. These are three very large leaps highly-effective student leaders make in their personal and social development that allow them to make a difference in their world and the world around them.

Before we look at the jumps, let's examine the structure.

Each jump has three elements:

1. The starting place
2. The ending place
3. The leap from one to the other.

All three are critical components of that particular leadership lesson. However, the leap itself is where the magic lives.
