Leadership Tip
Blazing New Trails
Recently I went hiking at Oregon Ridge,
a beautiful park 20 minutes from my home.
I knew the park existed; however,
I did not know that it had hiking paths.
Two weeks later I had a similar learning
when a friend and I went hiking in another place.
She had grown up in Baltimore and
never knew this park existed.
Both days were a lot of fun
and a whole new world
opened up each time.
How often do you miss things
in your own backyard?
How often are you open to
new experiences or ideas?
Being curious and open to what is
going on around us can expand our world.
Even being willing to explore the
other departments and
people in our organizations
and looking at them with fresh eyes
can create opportunities.
We may know they exist
yet we do not know the intricacies
of their landscape.
Take time to be an explorer.
You never know what new
trails you could blaze.
