A leader may envision the ideal so clearly that it becomes present tense in his own mind before it is actually present tense in the world around him. In some cases, this tense differential will create communication gaps. I will naturally operate as though I have a reality that is yet to come (Emily Dickenson said, “I dwell in possibility”). I must be careful not to get too far ahead of my team or to over-communicate my position. It is a constant challenge. The future is already present in my mind. Still, I must remain acutely aware of the differential between where we are and where we need to be.
