Safe leadership

Key concepts

  • Self-care is important, especially as a leader. You can’t help others if you’re running on empty.
  • Self-care is about identifying more than your basic needs. Spend time reflecting on personal activities that bring you happiness and fulfillment.
  • As you grow, what makes you feel happy and fulfilled can change too. Keep checking in with yourself and adjusting your self-care routine.
  • When leaders take care of themselves, they’re better at understanding and supporting others. 
  • Leading by example and making sure everyone’s wellbeing is a priority, encourages a healthier and more productive community.
