Leaders and Leadership
The words "leader" and "leadership" are often used incorrectly to describe people who are actually managing. These individuals may be highly skilled, good at their jobs, and valuable to their organizations – but that just makes them excellent managers, not leaders.
So, be careful how you use the terms, and don't assume that people with "leader" in their job titles, people who describe themselves as "leaders," or even groups called "leadership teams," are actually creating and delivering transformational change.
A particular danger in these situations is that people or organizations that are being managed by such an individual or group think they're being led; but they're not. There may actually be no leadership at all, with no one setting a vision and no one being inspired. This can cause serious problems in the long term.
I believe that a leader is someone that shows you how to do it so that you can do it yourself, no longer needing a leader.

"4. Coaching and Building a Team to Achieve the Vision"
I definitely copied and pasted this part of an article. I am used to dealing with liberal statists on facebook that will run for the hills if the see something about liberty or Ron Paul because he ran as a republican. I guess I could just share the whole article next time.
I always believed that leadership was defined by followership. People follow when they are led and not when they are bossed.
