Julia Middleton's Thoughts on Leadership

There is an interesting discussion on the Common Purpose LinkedIn group encouraging us to be brave enough to answer the question “Why should anyone be led by you?” – not an easy one. How would you answer it?

 In the discussion there is the suggestion that you should think about whether you are consistent in your leadership. Would it be the same answer at home and at work for example…and specifically with your partner? The thought that my husband would ever let me lead him (or indeed that he would ever attempt to lead me) makes me laugh!
