As members of this group can attest, there are several types of leadership.  We've written before about <a href="/good-leadership-vs-effective-leadership/">good leadership</a>, and <a href="/biased-justification-for-poor-leadership/">benevolent tyrants</a> and we speak often of what we call character-based leadership.  When you lead from <em>who-you-are</em> rather than your position or power, you're a character-based leader.

So when we decided to launch a webinar series <!--more-->for the Contributing Members of the group, we wanted to start with what we feel is the most important single leadership ability: Leading Yourself.  This is Episode 1 of the <a href="/leadership-character-series/">Leadership Character series</a>.  Monica Diaz will be presenting a webinar this Tuesday at 3 PM Eastern on the first <em>and last </em>responsibility of any leader, that of <em><strong>Leading Yourself</strong></em>.   An effective character-based leader must constantly be working on their  character, developing, growing and continuously improving in the area  of self-leadership.

Monica Diaz is one of the initial Contributing Members of the group and she is the Owner of Quidam Global and author of <a title="Otheresteem Website" href="http://www.otheresteem.org/" target="_blank">Otheresteem: Regaining the Power to Value Others.</a> She is also one of the Instigators, members of the group who attended  LeaderPalooza 2010 and one of the authors of The LeadChange Revolution  ebook.
<p style="text-align: left;">Since this is episode 1, we're opening this up to all of the members of the group.  Space is limited.</p>
