In the past a leader was a boss. Today's leaders must be partners with their people... they no longer can lead solely based on positional power.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Let me define a leader. He must have vision and passion and not be afraid of any problem. Instead, he should know how to defeat it. Most importantly, he must work with integrity.
A leader's job is not to do the work for others, it's to help others figure out how to do it themselves, to get things done, and to succeed beyond what they thought possible.
Leaders play a unique role in periods of crisis and chaos. Because if you don't, you're not going to harness the power of all the people behind you.
All leaders share something in common. They feel they are the only ones who can do the job.
A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.
Though there are lessons that can be learned about becoming a great leader, most exist inherently in the bellies of those who lead.
I think a leader has many roles to play. So, you know, one role is that of incubating talent; the other is that of being a strategist. It's a very interesting job I've got.
A leader is a person you will follow to a place you wouldn't go by yourself.
Leadership is influence.
If you are in a position to influence someone, you are a leader.
