Leadership Keys

Leadership is first being then doing.It is something you become,and then you do what you are. Leadership is the ability to inspire others to become and fulfill themselves by you doing the same.The definition of leadership is very simple and yet very complex.For many years,studies have been done to determine what leadership is and what makes one a leader.The results are varied.There are many theories involved.Moreover,there is also a difference between leadership and the leader.

The leader is the designated position and the individual assuming that position.Leadership is the function of the designated position.It is not a title.A title or position does not guarantee performance or productivity.Therefore,it is essential that we understand the difference between the position,the function,and the person.

Leadership is often viewed as a product of natural endowment,trait or personality,or intellectual capacity. I would not deny that talent or scholastic attainment enhance leadership.It is important to have these things,but they do not make a leader.The real qualities are found in those who are willing to suffer for the sake of objectives that are great enough to demand their wholehearted obedience.
Leadership is said not to be a function of titles but a function of relationships.

I believe leadership is the capacity to influence,inspire,rally,direct,encourage,motivate,induce,move,mobilise,and activate others to pursue a common goal or purpose while maintaining commitment,momentum,confidence and courage.

Leadership within its very nature incorporates a clear purpose and vision,which provides the fuel for inspiration.It has to have a passionate purpose that inspires others to go for it.
