Today, I am talking about BIAS.
Everyone has bias. Every single person on this planet has bias towards or against something or someone. If you say you do not then I am calling you a damn liar! Seriously, we all do. However, to become the leader we always wanted to follow, we must learn to control that bias.
Current and Future Leaders, we must work long and hard to ensure that they can make decisions that impact individuals and/or the entire team without letting the biases creep in. To be a fair, equitable, just and authentic leader you must control those biases and not let them influence your decision making.
It may be difficult to do so at first, but those leaders that care about others before they care about what is in it for themselves will see minimizing the bias as what must be done.
Sadly, those individuals that would rather half-ass their way towards a "position of power" will see minimizing the bias as an option. An option they would rather not utilize.
Thus taking the high road means controlling and curtailing your bias and your position as a fair and impartial leader not be too far behind.
REMEMBER: ACTION is ALWAYS greater than WORDS
