The Iceberg As A Picture of Leadership

The following comes from the book, "Habitudes" by Dr. Tim Elmore

"The iceberg is a great picture of leadership because so much of our influence comes from qualities we can't see on the outside. It's stuff below the surface. It's an estimate that 90% of our leadership is made up from our character. And our character is the sum total of our:

• Self-Discipline--the ability to do what's right even if you don't feel like it.
• Core Values--principles you live by that enable yo to take a moral stand.
• Sense of identity--a realistic self-image based on your gifts and personality.
• Emotional security--the capacity to be emotionally stable and consistent.
