becoming of leader book review how he becomes a warrior .pptx

Editor's Notes

  1. Warren Bennis (March 8, 1925 - July 31, 2014) was an American scholar and author, widely regarded as a pioneer of the contemporary field of leadership studies. Bennis was the professor of Business Administration and founding chairman of The Leadership Institute at the University of California. He is the author of dozens of articles and more than thirty books on leadership, including Geeks and Geezers, learning to lead, managing the dream and organizing Genius. The Wall Street Journal named him as one of the top ten most sought speakers on management in 1993 and The Financial Times in 2000referred to him, as "the professor who established leadership as a respectable academic field.His work, On Becoming a Leader, lays the foundation that a leader must be authentic, i.e. author of one's own creation and a combination of experience, self-knowledge, and personal ethics.
  2. the books is divided into heads, the first is the introduction On Becoming a leader which is based on the assumption that leaders are people who are able to express themselves fully. The opening Chapter of this book urges readers to ‘Master the Context’, Leaders have a significant role in forming the state of mind that is the society. They can serve as symbols of the moral and ethical unity of the society. the book talks about understanding the basic qualities required for an individual to become an efficient leader and how to work towards achieving it. then the author talks about knowing youself and knowing the world. the author very correctly brings out that Leaders learn from others, but they are not made by others. in the end the author talks about, how working towards developing these qualities and having a vision can be rewarding not only at an individual level but also for the good of all.
  3. 11.The book provides several fine insights on leadership. Perhaps the key one is that true leaders are not fascinated by proving themselves; they want above all to be able to express themselves completely. Proving oneself implies a restricted or static view of the self, whereas the leader, by frequently seeking his or her fullest expression, should be willing to engage in periodic reinvention. For Bennis's leaders, life is not a competition or a contest, but a learning. Ideally, the concept of continuous learning FORMS A part of the foundation of LEADERSHIP. LEARNING IS A NEVER ENDING PROCESS. ContinuOUS learning keeps leaders abreast of the happenings in their chosen fields. It also helps them acquire new insights in the arena OF THEIR CHOOSEN FIELD. v Integrity in leaders refers to being honest, trustworthy, and reliable. Leaders with integrity act in accordance with their words (i.e. they practice what they preach) and own up to their mistakes, as opposed to hiding them, blaming their team, or making excuses. By becoming more self-aware, and subsequently recognizing their strengths, weaknesses and hidden biases, leaders gain the trust of their team members and increase their own credibility. Additionally, a culture of self-awareness advances learning and development by promoting the value of continuous growth and development. Exercising character and candour requires a disposition to leadership. Candour plays out in day-to-day conversations and interactions and it is these conversations that culminate in quality judgment and decision-making.
  4. As human beings we Are all works in progress. Every human being is a work in progress that is slowly but inexorably moving toward perfection. We are each an unfinished work of art both waiting and striving to be completed. Leaders are people who are able to express themselves totally . Leadership is a result of expressing yourself fully in your area of work to achieve excellence. It is about being yourself. KNOWING ONES STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES PLAYS AN IMPOR ROLE IN DEVELOPING LEADERSHIP SKILLS WHERE WE ARE WELL AWARE ABOUT THE AREAS THAT ARE OUR STRENGTHS AND THE ONES THAT NEEDS TO BE WORKED UPON. AND LAST ONE LIFE IS NOT A COMPETITION BUT A CONTINUOUS LEARNING PROCESS. ITS NEVER TOO LATE TO START WORKING UPON YOURSELVES AND DEVELOP THE QUALITIES OF BECOMING A LEADER. Knowing ones strengths and weaknesses. They know who they are, what their strengths and weakness are, in which areas they need improvement, and how to completely deploy their strengths and abilities and catch up on their weaknesses. The key to full self expression is knowing one’s self and the world. 11.life is not a competition or a contest, but a learning, where rather than focusing on how to be better than others, we need to work towards being a better version of ourselves. life is not a competition or a contest, but a process of remembering what is important to us, and becoming a leader is therefore the act of becoming more and more yourself. It involves knowing your self better and striving hard every day to improve and to be better version of yourself. On Becoming a Leader’ is based on the belief that leaders are people who are able to express themselves totally. It covers, how people become leaders, how they lead, and the way how organisations encourage or stifle potential leaders.
  5. the book gives many instances implying that dsiplaying leadership does not necessarily means it to be on a large scale. leading a project in school, or organizing an event in college, all requires leadership skills. spotting a problem at work and finding a solution to it is also leadership. There’s no one way to be a leader, so as long as you’ve taken some time to think about what leadership means to you personally. I think that a good leader is someone who can make decisions while also taking into account the opinions and feelings of others. This also includes being willing and able to admit when you’re wrong and course correct. the general conception that we have about books on leadership is that they tend to be a bit boring and preachy. but the best part about this book is it doesnot lecture you or is not preachy in explaining about leadership. rather the author talks about his own life experiences that helped him learn about leadership and developing it.
