Good Leaders

are people who are trusted by followers

Leaders take organizations past the level that the science of management says is possible

How do you build trust?

  • Have a clear mission and statement
  • Selfless service
  • Prepare the followers 
  • Take risks with your followers

The essence of leadership is taking that extra step and giving it that spark that comes from getting people to trust you so that they will follow you, if only out of curiosity.
