We have heard so many times that
leaders are not born but made. How leaders are made and what they do,
others don’t? Out of myriads of leadership traits, all
great leaders are avid readers. Reading inspires them with ideas & fills
them with enthusiasm and energy. Most CEOs of Fortune 500 companies read an average of 4 books a month.
Leadership is a discipline and is all
about leading. But the question is how to lead? One of the best ways
to do this is by reading. Let me be frank to share that after my
engineering degree in 1979, I only read technical books and that too
because of my job. Now I read at least one book every month. If you
want to make a difference and become a successful leader, read at
least 5 pages per day and you will see the difference.
In DXN there are lots of leaders who
are not highly educated but have improved themselves tremendously. My
friend Chris Gross from Networking Times University says “Education
changes everything”-so true. Reading and education go
hand in glove. After over 9 years in DXN, I have learned a few things
in the area of business and personal growth. Thanks to DXN.
