I know my safe area...that is as a leader who falls back to the rules....the one who can back it up with the content.  Yet, I know in my heart that I need to be much more situational...and I have applied that as I grow.  I find this is the best way to get buy-in from others in my team....it isn't always just with the facts!

I would like to believe I lead more than I manage, but the truth is it seems few and far between. In the classroom it was easier to see and accomplish.  You had your moments when you knew you could lead, lead, lead....in administration, it seems so much about "reminding" people of things that need to be accomplished. The relationship part of leading is the intangible.
