Leadership Is What?: The Importance of Vision, Integrity, and Developing Others

As true leaders know, creating a vision is the way to stir things up, get people thinking differently, and excite them about the future of the organization.

But creating and implementing that vision is no easy task, and it comes much more naturally to some than others.

Daren Hancott defines what leaders do and what they are in this guide to leadership—sharing insights and strategies that anyone can use to boost their own leadership skills along the way. He asks questions such as:
• Why would you want to be a leader?
• What’s the difference between leaders and managers?
• What role do leaders play in changing an organization’s culture?
• How can leaders overcome resistance to change?

The theme throughout is that leaders are made, not born, and while leadership is difficult and complex, anyone can learn to be a leader.
