Comments on: CEOs Are Not Necessarily Leaders http://www.businesspundit.com/ceos-are-not-necessarily-leaders/ Entrepreneurship, Startup Companies and Business Philosophy Mon, 23 Nov 2009 02:54:25 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: Jane http://www.businesspundit.com/ceos-are-not-necessarily-leaders/comment-page-1/#comment-2562 Jane Thu, 30 Aug 2007 14:33:50 +0000 http://www.businesspundit.com.php5-6.websitetestlink.com/?p=3287#comment-2562 The following line of the article defined the difference perfectly: "CEOs are measured by quantitative results. Leaders are shaped and defined by character...Leaders inspire and enable others to do excellent work and realize their potential. As a result, they build successful, enduring organizations." I recently attended a leadership seminar called Movers & Shakespeares (http://www.moversandshakespeares.com/leadership.html) that showed a similar idea of what leadership is by relating it to Henry V. Really interesting way of showing the the key idea that a leader inspires and motivates...that is what sets them aside from the rest and makes them truly successful.

Thus, whoever can be put on a cover to sell magazines will get the spotlight (young leaders, brash leaders, rich leaders, or just about any other polarized attribute).

A leader doesn't have to; people are inspired to align behind the mission and find the right things to do on their own. Most people are just Managers, issuing orders in some form. Few are the Leaders. Anyone can give orders. A leader doesn’t have to; people are inspired to align behind the mission and find the right things to do on their own.
