LESSON IN LEADERSHIP - CANADIAN GEESE

Author Unknown

 


FACT
As each bird flaps its wings by flying in a V formation, the whole flock adds 71% flying range
than each bird flew alone.

LESSON
Share a common direction and sense of community.

FACT
Whenever a goose falls out of formation, it quickly gets back into formation to take advantage of the "lifting power" of the bird immediately in front.

LESSON
Step into formation with those who are headed where we want to go.

FACT
When a lead goose gets tired, it rotates back into the formation and another goose flies at the point position.

LESSON
Take turns doing the hard tasks and sharing leadership.

FACT
The geese in formation honk from behind to encourage those up front to keep up their speed.

LESSON
Make sure that our “honking” is encouraging.

FACT
When a goose gets sick or wounded, two geese drop out of the formation to follow and protect. They stay until the goose is able to fly again or dies.

LESSON
We should stand by each other in the same manner.
