Power is legitimate when the aim of the relationship is Care&Growth of the subordinate. That gives real empowerment and is the true job of the leader.

6. Leadership Excellence fundamentals

7. Enterprises don’t exist for themselves…
Enterprises exist to serve
customers and clients

8. The intent the serve produces surpluses…
Enterprises exist to serve
customers and clients

9. The intent the serve produces surpluses…
Enterprises exist to serve
customers and clients
Surplus
A surplus is the measure of the
degree to which the average member
of the group gave more than they
took…

10. The intent the serve accounts for successful teams
Teams succeed when
members of the team set
each other up to succeed
There are three reasons for this…
• There is a culture of good
citizenship in the group.
• The group has a benevolent intent.
• The group is well lead. People
don’t work for organisations
because they want to, they work
for bosses because they want to.

11. What this means for hierarchies
When bosses are asked to
define leadership they say:
Leadership is about achieving a result through people
Some Definitions
Integrity, An example to others, Motivates, Servanthood, A
chief connector, Inspirational, Set up people for success,
Selfless, Aware of own behaviour, Setting direction,
Engagement, Creating vision, The ability to influence others,
point out a direction, Role model, Emotional Intelligence,
Compassion, Inspiring others to realize their full potential,
Growing people, Inspiration generator, Guide, Coach, Giving
resources, Direct people towards a achieving a result, Set a
vision, Be a role model, trust the people, Leading by including
others, Trust, Integrity, Capability Builder, Creating
psychological safety, Courage…

12. When the boss thinks ‘Leadership is about achieving a result through people’ they make takers
Fred, in 1980 I did what you have to do now and what I did worked, do what I did
Joe, in 1980 I did what you have to do now and what I did worked, it may be helpful to you
Who will work for you because they have to and because they want to?
HAVE TO
WANT TO
If you think
Leadership is about
achieving a result
through people
Is this consistent with
the Fred or the Joe
interaction?

14. 14
Leadership is about
achieving people
through results
This is exactly what a coach does with a team
The coach does not
use the player
as his means to
achieve a result, he
uses the result as his
means to coach
the player

15. ‘Want to’ boss
Clarity of vision , right intention,
transparent, trustworthy, Trusting, Believes
in me, supports me, gives me feedback,
provides the vision and intent and listens to
my thoughts, Available, Listener, someone
who supports and cares about me,
Inspirational and role model leader,
coaching, honest, good listener,
accountability and taking responsibility,
make me grow, sincere, invested in me,
makes time for me / prioritises me,
authentic, human, Authentic, True, clear in
communication, honest, giving "freedom
under responsibility", making you grow as
person and professional.
The kind of boss people work for because they want to

CARE
GROWTH
and
Legitimate Power

18. The Second Axiom
Any relationship of POWER is
Legitimate if the aim of that
relationship is the
CARE and Growth
of the subordinate.

19. The Third Axiom
CARE and Growth
implies an incremental suspension of
control in order to empower the
subordinate

20. How do you empower someone? Don’t give him a fish…?
Hook, line, sinker, bait, boat
lake, beer, stool, umbrella,
sunglasses, license
How to bait a hook,
where to cast,
why he should fish
If you don’t catch a fish
after this, STARVE!!!
