When my team interviewed Florian Thamm from City of Munich Sports, he spoke to his personal experience where he chose to stay true to his values in his leadership role. Previously, Florian worked in mega sporting event planning. In this sector, he felt that there was an intense emphasis on monetary gain and status, at the cost of the best interests of the community. He felt trapped in this role within the organization and the only way to improve the impact on the community was to promote smaller, more inclusive events. To do this, he created his own sector where he had more control over developing community-focused events. As a leader, Florian recognized that his values weren’t in alignment with his current position and took the leap to find a role that was a better fit. This was an inspiring example of how Florian did what was best for his organization, by not only working to his strengths but also finding a role he was passionate about.
