Leadership Seminars: Leadership Seminars Will Give You A Simple Definition of Leadership
Like many people I have conducted a lot of interviews and one of my staple questions to ask "What is leadership?" or "Define leadership for me." It's a tough question to answer on the spot and for the most part I am gauging HOW someone answers a tough question versus the actual content.
More recently, I was on the interviewee side of the table and I prepared answers in advance to common questions including this leadership question.
So, as is my way, I jotted down a few nuggets about leadership to simply remind myself of what I hold dear. Now, 18 months later and taking a look at these notes, I like what I see and still hold them to be true. They are simple and practical.
Leadership includes:
The ability to think both tactically and strategically. Another angle on this theme would be the ability to think both short term and long term....similar but not the same as tactics and strategy.
The ability to translate and link disparate things into something cogent.
Being pragmatic, a good listener, thoughtful and decisive.
Being a good communicator, results oriented and a collaborator.
The ability (and courage) to know your own strengths and weaknesses.
Being a good administrator which is another way of saying executing well: Provide clear goals, roles & responsibilities, communications, time frames & milestones and contingencies.
There are thousands of white papers, theses, and books etc. on leadership. In the context of the volumes that have been written about this topic, my definition seems simplistic. But that's the beauty of it...it’s simple.
