  • Leaders don’t make more right decisions. They just make more decisions.
  • What sets real leaders apart is their ability to turn people’s legitimate anxiety about the future into confidence.
  • We need a leader to tell us: Who, precisely, do we serve? What is our core strength? Of the many things we can measure in our business, which one measure of success should we focus on? And, what specific actions can we take right now to improve our business?
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • you have to understand it through the impact a leader has on followers.
  • When leaders lead well, it’s because they’re able to rally people to a better future and make people spirited when they were previously anxious.
  • The message from most companies is that you should want to be a leader, and if you don’t there’s something wrong with you.
  • Leadership isn’t about that at all. Leadership is about finding the words, stories, and images that bring great clarity to people. And that’s just different from being a good manager. You could have both talents, but good managers don’t necessarily make good leaders.
  • Most leaders don’t see clarity as their primary job
  • A leader needs to be specific.

    Bought this book when I got my current mid-level college administrator job. I like Grove's definition of a (middle) manager: "individual contributors who gather and disseminate know-how and information."

    So my question is this...Can you take care of the employees and not create a "country club" environment but create delighted customers? I think they have the idea flipped. I think you can definitely take care of the customers and never provide an environment for your employees. This is where leadership sets itself apart from management.

    Not sure what Northouse would think. Some of these seem like management as he delineates that as distinct from leadership.. I think these all are a part of leadership, though.

  • The following sections discuss several important aspects of leadership including a description of what leadership is and a description of several popular theories and styles of leadership. This article also discusses topics such as the role of emotions and vision, as well as leadership effectiveness and performance, leadership in different contexts, how it may differ from related concepts (i.e., management), and some critiques of leadership as generally conceived.

    I just wanted to demonstrate the bookmarking features of Diigo. You'll see that I tagged the page ("definitions"), highlighted a section that I found useful ("The following sections...", which comes right from the Wikipedia page), and have added my own note (what you're reading right now).

    How could I not share this? CRG, from Alban, is a marvelous resource for ministers and those who care about the flourishing of congregations. And while this post is brief, it makes some interesting distinctions that differ just a bit from what we've already discussed.

    The Servant Leader shows how to put "Jesus at the heart of The One Minute Manager". (Both books written by Ken Blanchard.) How is business and our faith compatible? This book talks about Christ as the ultimate leader (business leader as well) and presents guiding principles to follow as we bring our faith into our work.

    Anthony Robinson offers us leadership strategies to benefit a church. "Functional strategies" to lead and information to develop as a leader, especially a spiritual leader. Robinson's work draws upon the expertise of other leaders as he develops "seven strategies for pastoral leadership".

    Had dinner here last night. Owner had a problem with one server. Had a quiet talk with her at the bar, his back to the customers. She protested but he persisted, quietly, gently. She ended up hugging him and going back to work. The genial atmosphere communicated authentic leadership to me. Also, interesting to note how business are using social media as this cafe does in lieu of a harder to manage website.

Crises Test (Prime Minister of Japan) Kan's Leadership Ability . - 0 views

    Japan has had five prime ministers in as many years, creating a merry-go-round of leadership. Now, for the first time, the country is being plunged into a catastrophe and the costs of weak leadership are becoming increasingly clear. Despite that fact, the bar is low enough now that even his apparent shortcomings are showcasing Mr. Kan as the kind of quiet, stalwart leader he wasn't considered before Friday's disasters. Mr. Kan's initially quick response is also a comparative improvement from the way disaster efforts were managed following the Kobe earthquake in January 1995. "People are more focused on getting things done on the day-to-day level. You don't necessarily have to be a flashy, charismatic leader to get the support of the people," said Koichi Nakano, professor of political science at Sophia University in Tokyo. "As long as Kan appears earnest and hard-working, that's fine. He doesn't necessarily need to inspire the people."

    This text was used as background in information in one of my communication classes in my undergraduate experience. We didn't read the whole book, just excerpts in class. Communication is something that we all do and as leaders we need to be keenly aware of how we communicate. I think good communication can motivate and energize people so that they can be the best people that they can be. As a pastor who speaks from the pulpit, I know that every little movement and word affects the message I am communicating. I feel this text can show us as leaders how we need to manage our communication.
