Leadership Distinctive #3: A leader has a realistic perspective on the urgent.
Short term versus long term. Many people think that being a leader is about being a visionary. There certainly is quite a bit to be said for having long term vision. At the same time, many people who have their sights only set on the long view never get anything done today that’s important.

Ask someone else in your organization what is extremely urgent today. Be prepared. They’ll tell you.
