Lack of Consistent Leaders

With so many issues that plague our landscape these days, we appear to lack true and consistent leadership. We look for someone to rise up and take charge when chaos rears its ugly head. I have been constantly disappointed time and time again with those whom profess to be leaders. My experience has led to research what it is that is the missing link to consistent and quality leadership.                                                                                                                                                                  

One of the first things that I encountered is that a mere host of those that lead are seeking self gratification. They are looking to make their names great. Now I personally know a lot of committed people at the grassroots level that lead consistently but have know need to be popular. The problem there is that these are the ones that I would love to see out front!

Others that somewhat call themselves leaders only pop up at opportune times. Let me explain: the tragedies of Ferguson, Baltimore, and South Carolina brought about opportunities for those types to show up. No need to name names because my intent is not to put them on blast but to merely show the contrast in the inconsistencies.

All in all, I am in constant search of new and innovative ideas to seek out elements in which true leadership can be pushed towards the forefront!
