Blog Seven: Komives Chap 3

The first sentence in the "Knowing-Being-Doing" section of chapter three states, "Individuals involved in the leadership process (leaders, members, co-creators, and so on) need to know themselves well before they work with others to influence change or achieve common purpose" (Komives. Pp76). I couldn't agree more with that statement since there is no possible way that anyone could contribute to a group or purpose without first knowing themselves and who they are, their beliefs, etc. To be knowledgeable, to be aware of yourself and others, and finally acting on your beliefs is critical in making change, and this is equally important as related to women and leadership.
