Everyone is a leader in their own right

Reflections on a conversation with a domestic abuse surviver.

This is part of an ongoing series reflecting on the saliency of my conversations with leaders who are creating our better world.

This reflection is on a conversation with Alison Fischer, who shares her incredible journey of resilience and perseverance. As a champion for survivors of domestic abuse, inspirational speaker and leadership consultant to entrepreneurs and small business owners Alison’s mission today is to provide support to those that have none. No mentors, no guides, no one to lean in to during challenging times — as a lighthouse for leaders, executives and survivors alike to live and lead a life with confidence and conviction, not settling for less than they deserve.

Key messages from this conversation;
– Alison’s EPIC leadership model.
– Collectively we make change. Every voice is important, but collectively we are better
– Great leaders do not make it about them, they bring other people up, make people better and the world better.
– Great leaders create a movement because it’s not about them, it’s about the greater good.
– How to become a better world leader; focus on active listening, find clarity in your mission or purpose, be empathetic, put people first always.
