Leadership is founded in providing the vision, the guidance, and the motivation for others to discover their potential in whatever it is they aspire to be. While this is a relatively simple and deeply personal definition of leadership, it still does not relate the full philosophical impact of its meaning. To explore leadership as both a definition and a philosophy, we must dig deeper to determine how to apply meaning over the course of a lifetime. To do so, I framed my leadership philosophy through the lenses of personal transformation, professional development, and vision.
