Lead by Sharing Others’ Ideas

You don’t have to paint the picture yourself

As a leader in your company and in your field, please share your own experiences. It’s a good thing to do! Your stories–and the lessons you’ve learned–will be valuable to your colleagues when they face similar challenges.

You can share your stories and lessons in person, or on social media, or in a blog like this one. But it’s important to remember: not all the content you share has to be your own.

Curating content means finding the most valuable information that other people have produced, adding value to it with your own comments, and sharing it with your audience.

Like a curator in a museum, when you curate online, you don’t paint the pictures. You choose what to display and what to say about each piece.
