Leadership, by definition, means to lead a group of people toward a common goal.
This means having influence.
How do you influence? Start by understanding people better. Try learning about all different kinds of people from different backgrounds.
How do you learn about all different kinds of people from all different backgrounds? It’s simple: travel.
Traveling to a different continent, or even to a different country within the same continent, forces you to step out of your comfort zone. You are exposed to things that are different than your routine at home. You will get to experience other ways of life, other thoughts, or other attitudes besides your own.
Chances are, if you are a leader in a business setting, you are leading people from different backgrounds and cultures to yours. The best way to understand others, feel compassion, and find inspiration to take your team to the next level is to travel.
Not to forget traveling can also be fun. Why not have fun, be inspired and become a better leader as well.
