Introduction
18,000,000 articles on leadership in 0.08 secs - over 2,000 books on leadership last year

structures kill it
our understanding is blinkered

Why are we obsessed with leadership?
Plato - leadership male
Crisis of belief in the modern world that has roots in rationalism of 18th century - Voltaire
19th century - Freud and Weber
20th century - ‘Trait’ and ‘Style’ theories
Recently dominated by ‘Contingency theories’ - situations/context

Four qualities
They selectively show their weaknesses
They rely on intuition to gauge the appropriate timing and course of their actions
They manage followers/employees with ‘tough empathy’
They reveal their differences

1. They selectively show weaknesses
Shows who you are - if perfect at everything there is no need for help
Builds solidarity between followers and leaders
Offers valuable protection
BUT must be done carefully

2. They rely on sensing
Gauging unexpressed things
can risk losing followers
beware of projection

3. Practice tough empathy
CARING but tough - handling ‘social closeness’ and ‘social distance’

DANGER!
Some leaders can over differentiate themselves in their determination to express separateness.

The desire for authenticity
Authentic leaders display a consistency between words and deeds
Authentic leadership is the capacity to display coherence
Authentic leadership involves ‘comfort with self’

Question
Which personal differences could form the basis of your leadership capability. As you think this through, focus on differences that have the potential to excite others, are genuinely yours (not copies of someone else) and signify something important in your context? Think too about your personal values and vision for those you are leading.
