New
Year's is a traditional time to reflect. As I begin another year of
leadership, I am trying to define what the job of a leader is, and how I
can do it even more effectively.
According to Max DePree, "The first responsibility of a leader is to define reality. The last is to say thank you. In between, the leader is a servant. " Theodore Roosevelt put it another way, "The best executive is the one who has sense enough to pick good men to do what he wants done, and self-restraint enough to keep from meddling with them while they do it."

Leadership to me is
developing a plan for the future, selecting motivated people,
coordinating and cheering on the team of workers, providing resources if
needed, and staying out of the way while the workers figure out how to
do their jobs.
What do you think are the 5 most important jobs of a leader?
