True
Leaders are hardly known to their followers.
Next after them are the leaders the people know and admire;
after them,
those the fear; after them, those they despise.
To give no trust
is to get no trust.
When the work's done
right,
with no fuss or boasting,
ordinary people say, "Oh, we did it."
- Lao-Tzu (Sixth Century
B.C.)
In today’s corporate environment, there is an
overabundance of managers and a lack of leaders. This situation clearly
has a negative impact on an organization’s ability to grow and compete!
A
leader combines the vision and curiosity of a dreamer with the practical
engineering of a builder. A leader is goal-directed, looking forward
with anticipation toward the attainment of measurable outcome goals. A
leader is a person who sets goals and achieves results. Goals give an
effective leader meaning and purpose, and serve as a continuous source
of motivation in pursuit of organizational and individual success.
While many books have been written about leadership, it remains, for
many a misunderstood and elusive quality. The capacity for leadership
exists in everyone, but most people never take the time to develop it.
Leadership is determination, courage, confidence and the ability to get
results.
Positive leadership assumes that goals can be accomplished, the job can
be done, the problem can be solved and the obstacles will be overcome.

A Process for Results
This
Executive Leadership process is a structured, open-ended, pragmatic
approach to developmental growth. It is a process designed to help
executives develop the attitudes, skills and qualities necessary for
personal and organizational leadership.
Three Essential Elements
Attitude Development: Attitudes are the basis for all behavior;
therefore, in order to develop or enhance leadership behavior it is
essential that we begin by developing positive, success-oriented
attitudes.
Interpersonal Skills: In much of what a leader is involved and therefore, must accomplish,
involves other people. To be effective in this continuous challenge it
is important to learn, understand and use interpersonal skills
effectively.
Goal Setting and Achievement: Leadership, among other things, is the process of providing
organizational direction and accomplishing necessary objectives. The
goal accomplishment model provides the tools and process necessary to
achieve more goals - more often – to maximize results and outcomes.
