The ability for senior leaders to promote a compelling vision, and for frontline leaders to consistently remind people how their work contributes to the mission, vision and values of the organisation, is critical. But it is only part of leadership.

Leading by Example
In last week’s post I discussed the importance of frontline managers in driving organisational performance. This week, let’s examine leading even when you have no management or leadership role.
Everyone’s a Leader
A recent article in the NZ Herald highlighted the work of Robin Sharma, author of the bestselling book The Monk who sold his Ferrari.
It turns out that Sharma is something of a leadership guru, in a personal development kind of way. For example, the marketing for his latest book, The Leader who had no Title, recommends that you ‘get ready for an amazing new life’ once you’ve read it.

How’s Your Vision?
Every organisation has a purpose. A story about who they are and what they seek to achieve. How this story is framed and communicated is a critical part of creating an engaged, motivated and productive workplace.
I Am The Way
Easter gave me the opportunity to think about the leadership of Jesus Christ. Christ consistently set an example for others to follow. In doing so he earned the right and respect to lead millions of people through the centuries since his death on the cross. I personally believe that when Christ said, “I am the Way” he meant that he was an example of what we all could do for ourselves.
Thanks Christ
It is that time of year. The season to again reflect on the life, teachings and leadership of Jesus Christ.
