"In the end it is important to remember that we cannot become what we need to be by remaining what we are." Max DePree, Leadership is an Art. 2004,
"It is easy to go astray when we forget that the heart of leadership is in the heart of the leader." Bolman & Deal, Leading with Soul. 2001.
"We are emotional beings in a social setting." Faverty lecture. 2004
I wish I could remember where the saying came from, it may actually have been the Bible, "as within, so without."
All of these quotes suggest that the function of leadership is an 'inside job,' that is inside the head and the heart of the leader. How does a leader bring to light the issues living in the head or the heart?
Reflection.
