Influencing and leadership seem like the same thing, right? Well… not exactly. You have to influence to be a leader. But to be an influencer, it’s not always necessary to lead.
The truth is that both of these roles are much different than we often think. The term “influencer” can make me cringe, but it doesn’t just mean selling products to your followers on social media.
On the flip side, leading can seem strong and noble, but it isn’t always about being in charge of others.
On this episode of The Leadership Formula, I discuss the differences and similarities between influence and leadership to show how even though they are often seen as interchangeable, there are very important differences between them and how they affect our lives.
Listen in to understand the courage it takes to be an influencer, the importance of being able to lead yourself, and how different Enneagram types can use their strengths to lean into themselves as both creative influencers and strong leaders.
