The Reluctant Shero
Many people think that being a leader is easy. It's not. You have to sit when others want to stand and stand when others want to sit. Most of all, as a leader, one has to lead with an empathetic heart because the masses are not filled with individuals of the same mind, experiences and abilities of one another. The competent leader knows that the masses are comprised of diverse individuals who could possibly grow together to have the same heart with just the right balance of guidance and support. No one ever really desires to jump into a position of true leadership (pregnant with obstacles and scrutiny), but when people of integrity rise to the occasion, it is a thing of divine grace and beauty. It oftentimes seems like these mighty people of valor are rare, yet I have been inspired by an individual who is exactly that type of person. She is my reluctant shero, Kanika Wellington-Jones.
