Over the last couple of years I have noticed that leadership is changing, it is shifting.  I am seeing that leadership is fluid, it is constantly moving.  People who try to master it or conquer it find that it is like trying to bottle the wind.  Leadership is not something that you wear on your chest like a metal, or put in a case like a trophy.  Leadership is something, in my opinion, that when you think you have it figured out, you are out of touch with it.

  • Leadership is more about what is done when no one is looking, as much as it is about the spotlight.
  • Leadership is as much about the individual as it about the crowd.
  • Leadership is about compassion and passion as much as it is about education and experience.
  • Leadership is about actions more than words.
  • Leadership is just as much about the unseen as it is the seen.
Wayne Gretzky was once asked what made me him so good on the ice.  He said that when every player is skating to where the puck is, he is moving to where it is going.  I want to move where the puck is going!

Where do you think leadership is moving?
