What is Leadership?
 Leadership is not about the next election, it's about the next generation.
 Simon Sinek, Author
 A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.
 John C. Maxwell, Author
 No matter how good you think you are as a leader, my goodness, the people
around you will have all kinds of ideas for how you can get better. So for me, the
most fundamental thing about leadership is to have the humility to continue to
get feedback and to try to get better - because your job is to try to help
everybody else get better.
 Jim Yong Kim, President of World Bank

Editor's Notes

  • #3 Great leaders move us, ignite our passions, and inspire the best in us—they work through our emotions. Leadership is also a skill required to effectively influence without direct authority over resources. This skill includes the ability to move from one leadership style to another depending on the situation. The leadership style we use determines the way people receive us and can either help or hinder their ability to perform.
  • #8 Malcolm Gladwell states the visionary starts with a clean piece of paper and reimagines the world
  • #9 This style builds on a triad of emotional intelligence abilities: teamwork and collaboration, conflict management, and influence. The best leaders are excellent listeners, and listening is a key strength
