Where Leadership Begins - Journal

This journal is the companion to Dan Freschi’s book, Where Leadership Begins.

As a leader, carving out time for daily journaling is a significant choice. It not only fosters personal growth, but it can also catalyze inspiring your team through the act of thoughtful leadership.

Journaling offers a unique opportunity to explore and evaluate your thoughts, ideas, and challenges in an organized and constructive manner.

When journaling is done consistently, it can lead to a greater understanding of your choices, what you’re experiencing, your strengths, areas for development, and steps to take for leadership excellence. It provides a safe and non-judgmental space to express your emotions, concerns, and reflections on your daily life, leadership choices, and experiences. When you journal, you encourage self-awareness and vulnerability, which are essential for personal growth and understanding your authentic self as a leader.

Dedicating time to examine your choice, values, experiences, emotions, and leadership style will provide invaluable insights into your leadership growth. Embrace your vulnerability and authenticity in these reflections, which can be a powerful catalyst for change and improvement.

Journaling as a leader is an enriching experience when approached with an open and optimistic mindset. Your journal can become a treasure trove of inspiration, a space where self-awareness, authenticity, humility, vulnerability, and courage converge. And maybe one day you will be inspired to write your own book.
