This document summarizes key points from a leadership workshop presented by Dr. Sam Collins. The workshop discusses developing an authentic leadership signature by understanding one's courageous purpose, direction of travel, and natural leadership style. It identifies five common leadership styles (collaborator, sage, warrior, sovereign, and pioneer) and provides tips for how to inspire and manage the blind spots of each style. Participants are guided through exercises to reflect on their authentic signature and how to maximize their inspiring impact while mitigating blind spots. The goal is to help leaders steer with courage and clarity as the "captain of their ship".
