Preface about Leadership
Leadership has become the favourite topic in the corporate world nowadays. Everywhere and everyone from the very top people to middle management have been inspired with the word leadership. A survey was conducted in my company with regards to leadership and the results had indicated that lots of leaders are required to be developed (on immediate basis) in order to sustain the "superior performance" of the company.
What are the differences between leaders and the rest of the workforce? Their character? attitude? personality? behaviour? apperance? Who are these guys? Are they born to be leaders? or is leader something that can be learned and thought in the classroom? Are they more superior in the IQ? All these questions need to be answered and understood in order for us to be one of them.
When talking about leadership, it's always come together with management. Leadership vs Management? Before we elaborate further on this topic, I would like to list down all the leadership/management jargon that requires everyone to clearly understand what it is.
