Leadership, as opposed to a leader, is not classified by a person, but rather as a process.
Leadership is the potential to influence behaviour of others.
True leadership starts with distinguishing between being 'in charge' versus taking care of those 'in our charge'.
Leaders help themselves and others to do the right things. They set direction, build an inspiring vision, and create something new.
Leadership is about mapping out where you need to go to "win" as a team or an organization; and it is dynamic, exciting, and inspiring.
