Cultivating Love and Reinforcing Love: The Continuous LEAP

Over the last week I have realized that the model for taking the LEAP into a radical leadership style is an ongoing process that takes place on a slope rather than a cliff. It is misleading to imagine taking one big LEAP and either becoming or not becoming a radical leader. Instead it is a process that constantly needs revisiting to maintain and improve our unique leadership styles. Cultivating love is at the foundation of strong leadership and building community. After the incredible community bonding experience on our camping trip, I have been able to see my relationships with the students becoming even more meaningful. Sometimes there are those special moments that help reinvigorate that love and passion for why my job means so much to me. Reinforcing the love is an important part of the LEAP because it can generate a powerful boost of energy that can inspire more audacity and proof.
