Scott Downing on Leading with Values

One of the things I appreciate so much about Scott is his clarity of knowing his behavioral model and how it informs both his model for leadership and his model for living. You also hear in his story how having defined values in his model for living, he was able to navigate a situation in his leadership that stepped on those personal values in a real way. Models don't make difficult situations disappear, but I do believe they help provide you clarity, particularly when the stakes rise, to help you navigate situations in a way that feels most resonant for you. I think that's the source of clarity and confidence. And in moments of crisis, sometimes the confusion slips away when you can be really clear about what's important to you.
