“Real leadership is leaders recognizing that they serve the people that they lead.”    ---Pete Hoekstra​ 

Points of Leadership is all about equipping leaders in maximizing their leadership for the people they lead and care for.
 
This time of year, most leaders across a variety of industries are not only reflecting on their team’s performance this year, but they are also casting vision and looking towards the next year. Here at Points of Leadership we are doing the same. We have dived into the great leadership lessons gleaned this year. And in our next episode we will dive into some of what we are excited about for 2026.

In this episode, we wrap up the leadership lessons from this year. What leaders routinely do and models can be transferred to their teams. Best leaders know it is critical to spend time with their teams to hear from each team member as they cast vision for the next year or quarter. In a recent Havard Business Review article, it asserts why it is important for leaders to reflect on leadership lessons. This is because leaders are under relentless pressure to perform in environments of increasing uncertainties and changes.

In this wrap up episode of leadership lessons of 2025, Dr. Feyi Obamehinti and Mrs. Kristin Jaeck discuss and share a leader’s ability to know his or her own capacity, practicing high road leadership and embracing dissenting opinions. It takes great skill for a leader to seek out variety of opinions that will enrich his or her team for the best of everyone on the team or the entire organization.

Lastly, they discuss the importance of positivity and reconnection time to refuel, refresh and rejuvenate. The best leaders know that the “hero complex” can be dangerous and sometimes deadly on the human health. As always, the leadership principles we share on Points of Leadership are for any leader in any industry that desires to take care of those they lead well through the overflow of his or her life. So, pull up a chair, call a friend and take a listen and share with any industry leader in your life.
