Discovering a Mission: My Way to Virtuous Leadership

As you read through the narrative of how Virtuous Leadership expert Alex Havard came to find his mission through the contemplation of his own story, ask yourself: What is my story? What is my talent? What is the cultural or social challenge I am called to respond to with passion and dedication? Reflect on your story. Contemplate it. Recognize that your story is your strength. And write it down. “In my Virtuous Leadership classes I always call on my students to discover their own essence in order to identify a mission. And to help determine what that is, I ask them to write the story of their lives to that point. I suggest that in the writing they will begin to see themselves for who they are, to develop a concept of self, and, in the process, discern a mission—the thing they were born to do.” - Alexandre Havard
