Interlinking Diversity Challenges towards Ideal Engagement

As leaders we believe that leadership is not actually limited by a period of leadership. Leadership traces will always continue into the future, even when we are no longer leading. Therefore, leadership cannot be separated from inheritance (legacy).

Beautiful trails in the form of performance achievements can just be a record that inspires and spurs the next generation to do better. Sweet traces of business management can be a structural capital to continue the next business journey. But the fast dynamics of the business world can also make all these traces irrelevant. When the relevance is lost, it becomes a historical record, which sooner or later people will forget about it.

Leadership traces that will not be lost are the traces of leadership that are imprinted on a person's life. When leaders make them led, it is not a tool to achieve goals but an end in itself, when leaders make humans not just a strategy to realize the vision but as the vision itself, when the leader touches someone's heart through personal example, when the leader instills meaning and mission in life, when leaders transform one's way of thinking, and when leaders develop one's capacities and capabilities; those are sweet trails that will not end and will not diminish. This is the true legacy of leadership, this is your everlasting legacy.
