Leadership is a practice
Start small.
Grow with purpose.
A title is one way to take responsibility. Everyday habits are another. These are practical ways to begin contributing to a team while building your own confidence.
Take one task seriously.
Agree what is needed, when it is due and who depends on it. Follow through, and ask early if you need help.
Help others participate.
Invite questions, listen across different perspectives and make decisions understandable to everyone involved.
Learn in the open.
Ask for feedback after a meeting or project. Share what you learned so the next person can build on it.
Make the handover easier.
Leave clear notes, useful contacts and a record of decisions. Good work should be possible to continue after you.
Learning beyond one club
Build confidence.
Broaden your horizon.
