Not seeing your father when you are small, never being with him, having a remote father, a workaholic father, is an injury.

Leadership and parenting are synonymous

“What, do you think money grows on trees?” You probably heard that statement at least once from your parents.

 

Leadership and parenting are synonymous.

You must be a leader as a parent.

And while you aren’t a parent as a business leader, hardly a day goes by that you don’t feel like you’re using parenting skills on your adult workers.

How Business Advising and Foster Parenting are similar

How Business Advising and Foster Parenting are similar.

Your love and affection for both are deep and real.

You work like everything matters.

And yet.

And yet there’s a reality that’s hard to shake off.

It is someone else’s company.

It is someone else’s child.

You care so much, and yet you must surrender to the reality that you do not have final say on any outcomes.

PS. Fostering and adopting are distinctly different. You can adopt a child you’ve been fostering, but the assumption in this example is that that never happens.

Not planning to keep up with it should be though.
