Every one can be a leader but Truly there is
a leadership deficit Leading life is every ones’
compulsion. But choosing to survive, maintain or
grow is a choice: that determines the quality of leadership
SMG: in the physical, intellectual, emotional & spiritual dimensions need to be considered

Leadership: far from the delivery boy efficacy
Most of the accountability of managing demands delivery of “results”.
There is a myth that “manager” is also a leader by default. Don’t mix up the efficient “pizza” delivery boy for the dynamic path builder

T. leadership vs. the pygmies: positional
leader There are natural T.leaders. They are
rare T. leader has a long term perspective; a
dream of a better social system; least pre-occupation with himself and is reverred
Rest of the crowd is fascinated by leadership power, centrality, privileges and illusion of influence.

Quality of leadership- Beyond “domain & delivery competency” Thought leadership – if intellectual- is
also leadership ; but true LEADERS are those who change the mental make up of the people, change their beliefs and inspire a greater sense of collective good.
