From the Harvard Business Review - Leading People When They Know More than You Do

I started my career in athletics as a student assistant at Columbus State Community College in the athletic department. That position translated into an opportunity at the University of Toledo as a student assistant in the Sports Information Office. From there, I went on to become a sports information intern at the Naval Academy and at Indiana University. Next, I went on to become an assistant sports information director at both Indiana State and Florida International University. My next three positions were 'director level' by title at Texas A&M University-Commerce, Wisconsin-Platteville and now, LeTourneau University. One thing that was important and remains important is that I was responsible for leading people, who know more than I do. While reading this article, I thought it was important to pass along that knowledge to the readers of this blog.

Key points:
1) Focus on relationships, not facts

2) Add value by enabling things to happen, not by doing the work 

3) Practice seeing the bigger picture, not mastering the details

4) Rely on “executive presence” to project confidence, not on having all the facts or answers
