These past few months have afforded me an opportunity to experience leadership from a unique angle. Today's leadership blog from Dan Rockwell identifies three things that top leaders do:
1. Maker self-improvement a priority- "If you can't name something you're working to improve, you're on the decline"
2. Bring their best selves to work - "Leadership is about who you are before its about what your do"
3. Practice self-care - " Take care of yourself if you want a fulfilling career with expanding impact and usefulness:

I would add "Effectively Listen" to the list. People will remember how you made them feel before they recall what you said.
