WHAT DOES SURFING HAVE TO DO WITH LEADERSHIP?
![Page 9: Leadersurf: A Leadership Development Program Like No Other](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030121/58a1f4d21a28abac528b4b27/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
BALANCE IS KEY
• Work -- Family/Life
• Short term priorities -- Long term goals
• Personal needs -- Needs of others
• Growing revenue -- Containing costs
• Competing -- Collaborating
BE PREPARED
Catching an ocean wave is hard. Much like leading a business it requires preparation for success.
• Planning and hard work are required for success
• Must put yourself in the right position for success
• Must be courageous and overcome your fear of failure
• Must have the right tools for the task at hand
MAINTAIN PERSPECTIVE
Keeping things in
perspective is an
important skill for
leaders and surfers. One
must acknowledge and
respect his or her
surroundings.
