Celebrity Leadership Tips for Millennials

As a Champion of Great Leadership I believe two things, firstly that great leadership is necessary in all organizations, communities and schools to make them successful and secondly that anyone is capable of demonstrating great leadership with the right skills, tools, inspiration and support.

What better way to encourage great leadership in the 21st Century than to start from the grassroots up, encouraging young people to show leadership in their school, community or workplace.

I wondered what tips I could offer young people starting their leadership journey and therefore via Twitter, have started tweeting celebrities asking them for the #1 Leadership Tip.

Thanks to everyone who's replied so far and let's hope that this advice provides an inspiration to all.

Here goes:

Perez Hilton (Hollywood Celebrity Gossip) - "Work harder than you think you need to or should!"

Charleston Hughes ( Calgary Stampeders Football) - "Knowledge is power with that confidence and ambition fuels knowledge."

Theo Fleury (Motivational Speaker Ex-NHL Player) - "Be the hardest worker. Lead without ego and have fun enjoying the process."

Tara Nelson (CTV News Anchor) - "Collaborate. I think the best team leaders are also good team members. Recognize and utilize everyone's strengths."

Gord Gillies (Global TV News Anchor) - "It's hard to do when you're young, but, solicit feedback. Ask people you respect how you're doing - & you'll improve."

Gerry Forbes (CJAY92 DJ) - "Do the unexpected as far as creative goes and take chances without fear!"
