Hope in Action = Leadership

Dr. Robert Ross of the California Endowment addressed the SLC at lunch. He defined leadership as 'hope in action.' Our work, our mission and our future is dependent on our ability to move our aspiration into action that creates results. Period.

I read the other day that vision absent of implementation is a hallucination.

As Dr. Ross spoke today I thought of that simple idea. So often we get caught up in our process or our vision that we miss the key ingredient of action. United Way ought to have a bias towards action. We ought to be known for our unique ability to get things done at a community, regional, national and global level. We can take vision ---our hope --- and put it into action.

Earlier today we saw how communities have done just that ---- recognition for outstanding leadership ----awards given through UWA's knowledge cafe. If one wants to see leadership in our system, just visit the highlighted communities in the knowledge cafe. They each demonstrate a core competency for moving 'hope into action.'

Or as Dr. Ross would say, the ability to LEAD.
