131: Leaders With Heart Know The Power of Appreciation

In this episode, Heather speaks with Danny Langloss, City Manager at City of Dixon in Illinois about his leadership style, the importance of showing appreciation for those we lead, a time when he was not the best version of himself and much more.

Key takeaways:

• There is a delicate balance for the leader on being self-aware and managing our emotions.
• There is a big difference between being very aware of who we are and how we are feeling then how others are feeling or responding to who we are
• We should have robust personal and organizational or team mission to hold onto when things get tough. That is our north star
• The leadership journey is not simple or easy
