How do you define leadership?

 

People know how to complain about the failings of a leader, but they don't always know how to define what a good leader should be like. When asked to define good leadership, people have different opinions. Some say leadership is decision-making. Some say it is about having a vision. Some say it is leading by example - do what you want others to do. One thing most people can agree on is a leader needs to get things done. They help the organisation achieve results. People coming together to form an organisation always creates difficulties, because we are human. A good leader gets these humans to work together to achieve something they can't achieve by themselves. What else do you think a good leader should do?
