Leadership Re-invented

- Leadership = promoting new directions.
- Management = getting things done.
- All employees can promote new directions.
- Leadership can be shown bottom-up or sideways to people who don't report to you.

- Leaders don't make decisions. The ACT of leadership is one of pure informal influence.
