Defining Leadership Leadership is the discipline of deliberately exerting special influence within a group to move it toward goals of beneficial permanence that fulfill the group’s real needs. (John E Haggai)
GOALSETTING AND LEADERSHIP A leader must have a vision. That vision must be fulfilled by goals that work toward the achievement of the vision. A vision is the foundation of all leadership
Goalsetting and Commitment A leader’s vision requires a commitment to act That commitment is called a mission A leader without goals is like a platoon captain without a compass.
Effective Goalsetting To be effective a leader must constantly sharpen the focus of his/her vision. The clearer the leader’s goals, the sharper his/her focus
“Determine what you want more than anything else in life, write down the means by which you intend to attain it, and permit nothing to deter you from pursuing it.” Henry Kaiser
GOAL CONFLICTS Often 2 desirable goals will come into conflict Examples How do we determine which one is the most important?
A vision is the foundation of all leadership A leader’s vision requires a commitment to act which is called a mission
Vision and Mission Both are put in into practice with a set of specific goals
