For example, they may talk about downsizing, restructuring, and reengineering. These are only tools to reach a goal. If you do not know where you are going, any road will get you there, or better still, If you do not know where you are going, you may end up somewhere else. I believe leadership is about creating a vision of what should be, getting others to share it, and putting it into action with passion and integrity. Vision stimulates energy.
Energy is contagious.
Leadership is about having energy. Like the first bricklayer, some people are so task-oriented that they fail to see the big picture of what they do, what they are participating in. I believe that leadership is about pride. Pride about what we do and about ourselves. Pride about our accomplishments.
