Itโs been around for about twenty years, but I only came across it this year. Although it was originally shared with artists in mind, the idea has a powerful link to leadership.
๐๐๐ ๐ข๐๐ฉ๐๐ฅ๐๐ค๐ง ๐๐จ ๐จ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ก๐: every bus leaving the station shares the same initial stops. Itโs only when you stay on the bus long enough that the route becomes uniquely yours.
Most of us begin our careers doing similar work, solving similar problems and building similar capabilities. In the early stages, it all feels familiar and even interchangeable.
But the leaders who create real impact are the ones who stay ๐ฐ๐ฏ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ด๐ข๐ฎ๐ฆ ๐ฃ๐ถ๐ด long enough. Over time, the routes diverge. What started similarly evolves into something distinct, shaped by depth, consistency and clarity.
This has been on my mind as we build the fractional leadership ecosystem in Singapore. Over the past two years, Iโve had the privilege of meeting hundreds of capable, motivated leaders, each of whom has stayed on their route long enough to build differentiated expertise that organisations increasingly rely on.
And in an uncertain, shifting world, having access to the ๐ณ๐ช๐จ๐ฉ๐ต route at the ๐ณ๐ช๐จ๐ฉ๐ต moment matters.
