What the Duke Would Change
Anecdote about the Duke of Wellington
The Duke of Wellington was brilliant and demanding, not given to compliments. In old age a young woman asked what he would do differently. He replied that he would give more praise. The recognition came late, but it was honest. Many leaders discover the same gap: high standards without corresponding encouragement leave people certain of their failures and uncertain of their worth.
How you’d preach it
Even a demanding leader recognized late that encouragement had been missing. Useful for leaders who default to critique.
