A simple definition of leadership is that leadership is the art of motivating a group of people to act towards achieving a common goal.
No matter who you are, there will be a case of submission to someone sometime in your life.
Anywhere there is a case for unity, there will be need for leadership & order.
In all instances of individuals, who are trying to come to a unity or common
ground, that is when a leader might be used to negotiate the differences.
Whether it be in marriage, education, spiritual or financial, anyone with a common goal there must be order.
As a leader you should always start with where people are before you try to take them to where you want them to go.
Leadership is not so much about technique and methods as it is about opening the heart. Leadership is about inspiration—of oneself and of others. Great leadership is about human experiences, not processes. Leadership is not a formula or a program, it is a human activity that comes from the heart and considers the hearts of others. It is an attitude, not a routine."
Leaders are not born. They are created through rigorous training and development. They are formed just like anything else. . . through hard work and God assistance. That's the price they have to pay to achieve that goal or goals in their calling.
Leaders instill in their people a hope for success and a belief in themselves. Positive leaders assist people to accomplish their goals.
The task of the leader is to get his people from where they are to where they have not been."
Leaders are ones who guides a specific group of people to move in a God-given direction."
Everyone faces challenges and problems. Success lies in dealing with them promptly and thoroughly.
"Men and Women make history and not the other way around. In periods where there is no leadership, society stands still. Progress occurs when courageous, skillful leaders seize the opportunity to change things for the better."
Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which have been defeated while trying to succeed.
No group of people is stronger than the quality of its leadership, or ever extends its constituency far beyond the degree to which its leadership is representative.
In the past century a leader was a boss.. Today’s leaders must be partners with their people, they no longer can lead solely based on positional power.
"A leader takes people where they want to go. A great leader takes people where they don't necessarily want to go but ought to be."
Leaders don't create followers, they create more leaders.
