The BeginningMost of what I've learned about leadership I've learned from climbing rocks. This is a sad comment on what I've learned about leadership in my #1 career, as a scientist.
I started rock climbing in winter 2000 in the Pittsburgh climbing gym, The Climbing Wall, Inc. Thanks, Donna, my climbing mommie!
The leadership lessons I learned rock climbing have affected many parts of my personal and professional life. For once, I could never have served as Associate Dean for Undergraduate Studies for the School of Arts and Sciences had I not been a rock climber. Being a rock climber was what got me the job!
As an academic, I am used to publish what I learn. But where do you publish your thoughts about leadership, on the rocks, and off?
