One of the things we like to promote here at Lead Change is members who inspire us to lead from who we are rather than our position.  With our character as the source of inspiration and influence we act as authentic leaders; not perfect but genuine, always seeking the best for the group rather than just for ourselves.

Recently Erin Schreyer(<a href="http://twitter.com/erinschreyer">@ErinSchreyer</a>) of <a href="http://sagestone.wordpress.com">Sagestone Partners</a> and <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/groups?mostPopular=&gid=2149541">Authentic Leadership Cincinnati</a> commissioned a video based on her thoughts on authentic, character-based leadership.  It's titled <em>You Are A Leader</em>.  Take a look.
