The Legacy of Mr. Rogers: Love and Leadership for the New Year

Access Your Leadership with Hakim Lakhdar

In this episode, Hakim carves out some time on NYE 2023 to share a deeply moving and powerful quote from Mr. Rogers’ that has always made such a big impression on him. He talks about the impact of such a quote on the way in which we lead ourselves and others and why it’s not talked about more often. Hakim offers up a few areas where embracing the message behind such a quote could transform your team and your own leadership philosophy. What does helping others know they’re loved and know they can love mean for leadership? Why is love (or the lack of love) the foundation for all learning and development, not only as a leader but as someone who is responsible for supporting, developing and guiding others? How does leading with and promoting love as a leader support employee well-being and foster a more engaged workforce? What does this quote say about empowerment and encouragement? Why is this focus so important to leadership and the creation of a positive work culture? How does understanding this quote create a safer, more diverse and inclusive work environment? What makes this such an important pursuit, not only for Hakim in the year ahead but of any and all leaders out there? There is so much value to be gained by listening to these 10 minutes. If you’re a leader leading from your head and you want a better understanding of the value of leading from your heart….start here!
