Too often I see colleagues use the "man behind the curtain" approach to #leadership. If you want to be successful in #government or #community, be the person IN FRONT of the curtain. Engagement & interaction with those you serve are signs of #courage, not weakness! @USEmbPortugal

[Gabriel Marques @RealGabeMarques]

Good morning @UN, keep up the great work @Portugal_UN and SG @antonioguterres! #Portugal 🇵🇹🇺🇳
