Leadership is a hot topic right now. There are articles in business magazines, books on the best seller lists, workshops and seminars - and coaching programs on the topic. What is the fascination with leadership and why is it so important?
Leadership is extremely important. Without it, organizations never reach their fullest potential. With it, they soar to new heights. Leadership can't be bought or sold - it is something you either have or don't have. With it, you are followed into battle. Without it, you are chased from the playing field. And I still firmly believe you can develop leadership - but it doesn't happen instantly.
Leadership can be developed in anyone who is seriously interested in personal and professional growth. It comes from within the person and isn't necessarily connected to any position. Regardless of profession, leadership is key to moving forward in business - as well as personally.
How does one develop their leadership skill set? (Please read my blog on Wednesday, July 5 when I address developing leadership.)
