Wise Leaders Are People Leaders

It should be obvious that leadership is about people. Sadly it's not. For some leadership is about power and privilege. For some leadership is command and control or divide and conquer. These folk are managers not leaders. People management is an oxymoron.

Today's video (the eleventh in a series of fifteen) is a reminder that people leadership is the art of seeing, sometimes unearthing, yet mostly magnifying and enhancing people's essence (unique personal wisdom), including your own.

As I stated in Monday's post about the wonderful work of wise leaders the primary purpose of real leaders is to make a difference and serve others.

How are you going?

There's a short self-directed complimentary online course here to help you to see, unearth, magnify and/or enhance your essence.

Become the wise leader you want to be.
