The values they discern

There’s a simple parenting rule – the values you pass on to your kids are the values they discern from your actions. There is little correlation with the values you might intend to pass on or talk about.

Applies just as much to any leadership role. You can, for example, talk about long-term thinking all you want. But if all you reward is short-term thinking, it is what you will get.
