trapped.....

trapped.....
I am trapped.
I am a leader trapped in a manager's job.

I am taking part in a magnificent program for leaders in my home town. My corporation has sent me. And I love it. I live for these things. These first two days are all about situational leadership, character, traits of leaders, Myers-Brigs, and the ropes course.

Today - in reading the difference, I realized that I am a leader trapped in a manager's body. I understand now why I had to go to HR to ask why I'm not being promoted. I have probably 90% of the characteristics in a strong leader, yet I am stuck in a position that only allows me to be a manager.

I am a leader, possibly a great leader, trapped...
Trapped in a manager's job....
