I am willing to follow real leaders, who inspire and lead by example, |
| 8 |
in the words of Ann Marie E. McSwain, Assistant Professor at Lincoln |
| 9 |
University, “leadership is about capacity: the capacity of leaders to |
| 10 |
listen and observe, to use their expertise as a starting point to |
| 11 |
encourage dialogue between all levels of decision-making, to establish |
| 12 |
processes and transparency in decision-making, to articulate their own |
| 13 |
values and visions clearly but not impose them. Leadership is about |
| 14 |
setting and not just reacting to agendas, identifying problems, and |
| 15 |
initiating change that makes for substantial improvement rather than |
| 16 |
managing change.” (quoted from |
