FOUNDER’S MESSAGE LET’S TALK ABOUT leadership. It's a major topic
addressed
in
millions
of
books,
educational courses, and by self-help gurus. It’s on the minds of almost everyone in an effective organisation. Why? Successful leadership is the key to successful organisations. There’s only one problem: Many people confuse being a leader with being a boss. These two are not the same. Simply having rank or power does not enshrine someone with leadership. Almost anybody can ruthlessly demand and intimidate from behind a desk. However, a leader does not sit behind a desk. A leader is out front, doing the work, setting the example for others to do the same. As our convention speaker from last year, Darren Hardy, says, “A boss and a manager prod from behind, but a leader pulls from up front.” A leader is not a taskmaster. A leader is someone who inspires others to be better and to do more. It’s not done with threats but through empowering individuals and groups to reach their highest potential. Leadership revolves around humility and a clear, concise vision. Leadership is about developing people, not growing bottom lines or checking off to-do
