Lead
- “to act as a guide” or “to guide”
Leader
- "a person who leads, directs, commands, or
guides a group or activity”
(Webster’s Dictionary)
The underlying implications of leadership are many and deep. Given the
authority, anyone can command but there is a difference between the two:
“The farther we keep away from the
‘boss’ proposition—of being the ‘boss’ of the men under us—the more successful
we are going to be....but it does exist in many places throughout the country,
where a man, because of his impressive title, assumes the attitude of a ‘boss’
and tells people what to do, instead of helping them to do it..” Thomas J.
Watson Sr. President IBM (1914-1956)
Leading
is a delicate art calling for “people-oriented” attributes that many find
elusive or difficult to develop. That is what 4 Thought Perspectives is
all about, developing and enhancing leaders with people-oriented skills!
