Leadership involves influencing others to achieve goals through strategic thinking, vision, motivation, inspiration, problem solving, communication, and risk taking. Leaders manage goals, quality, relationships, and performance, while managers focus more on maintaining processes and meeting targets. Effective leadership requires continually learning from mistakes, asking questions rather than giving instructions, and building a reputation on unique value rather than price alone. The ultimate questions for a leader are what their vision and destination are for continually improving themselves and their organization.
