Louis Massaro, in a YouTube video titled "How To Turn Fear Into Focus," provides leadership advice about managing fear. He emphasizes that leaders will feel fear but must not show or offload it onto their team; instead they should process fear privately and convert it into action and composure so others can follow confidently.
You're a leader for yourself, you're a leader for your family, you're a leader for your business, maybe your community, maybe your church, whoever you're involved in, you're a leader. And guess what? When shit hits the fan, people want to follow the leader. People want to know that they are with somebody that has got this under control. You might be terrified internally, but you don't let your people see that. Right. You might have to, you know, do all these things every day to get your mind from fear back to taking action. Right. You might have to. Doesn't fearless doesn't mean I don't have any fear in me. Right. It means I'm handling my fear. And when it comes to being a leader, I'm not going and dumping my fear on my team.
