Leadership Tuesdays: Looking For Safety In A Storm...Faye Wattleton

“The only safe ship in a storm is leadership.” 

--Faye Wattleton





Every other Tuesday, womenatliberty.com presents #Leadership Tuesdays, a platform for a variety of voices and resources to develop, encourage, and strengthen women leaders. Today's article is, "How to Defeat the Dangers of Disrespect" by Dan Rockwell (Twitter: @leadershipfreak). You can find this concise article posted on our Women Making History Facebook page.


No one wants to be disrespected. When leaders disrespect those whom they have been given the privilege of leading, they negatively impact the productivity of the entire team. They also encourage an environment where team members are more likely to disrespect each other. This type of behavior decreases morale and overall productivity.

Leaders must set the tone. They should respect their team members and they must also insist that team members respect one another. Dan Rockwell's article gives some examples of disrespectful behavior and practical tips on how leaders can show value for others.
