  4. A New Model of Leadership • “The leaders role is to establish the conditions under which all performers will choose to execute the mission, vision, and values of the organization.” • Leadership is the effect that any one person has on the behavior of others.

The Opposite of Loyalty • Indifference to the vision of the leader, to the vision that makes the organization unique • Resistance to change Can be an issue for leaders when the change exposes the follower to punishment and failure, it will be resisted • Rewarding extra effort will lead to persistent and diligent followers

  9. Leader vs. Manager • A manager is a technician • Helps people and processes work together • Leaders are energizers • Encourage members to perform towards the vision • Norman Schwarzkopf: “[Purpose of leadership is] to get people to willingly do that which they ordinarily would not do”. • One can be a leader or a manager, or both.
