Leadership is..."The Man in the Arena"
"Very interesting read John. I believe the first set of bullets are also the qualities of a great manager. The leader that is unknown or unseen epitomizes the ultimate ability of a leader. Interesting quotes by Lao Tzu and Drucker, I would agree in theory, and from a leadership point of view. I am curious however, about the NEED of the average person to follow. They need a leader, yet if that leader is hidden amongst them, they have to seek them out, or appoint someone else (perhaps even that person that incorrectly accepts the credit, thereby making them the "leader") But then there is the counter balance that if you empower people, they will take on any challenge, and self-lead. My conclusion is that eventually that wears off, and they will again seek a "leader of the pack""Finance Planning For The Year End

"Most welcome Goran, And thank you too for sharing with your own community. An audience wouldn't be there if they did not want to learn (or at least find out how much or little they know already) Whatever way we look at it, they want value, and that is always positive :)"5 Ways To Banish The Fear Of Public Speaking
"Once a want to change becomes greater than the need to stay the same, change happens. And change is generally perceived by humans as negative, whereas it can also be positive. And just sometimes, it means simply putting yourself in that position to realise it's not so bad, afterall. And the sense of achievement and euphoria so outweighs the initial fear. Best wishes Sian, perhaps a local toastmasters may be an opportunity to get over that initial hurdle!"Subscribe
