Defining leadership
This podcast is part of the Contemporary leadership series
The first in a new monthly series of podcasts produced in collaboration with Thinkers 50, the episode reviews some of Stuart Crainer and Des Dearlove’s favourite definitions of leadership, covering great thinkers such as Warren Bennis, James MacGregor Burns, Rob Goffee and Gareth Jones, and ordinary people in day-to-day leadership roles (a busy man selling burgers at half-time at a football match).
“Managers are people who do things right and leaders are people who do the right things.” Warren Bennis
“Leaders induce followers to act for certain goals that represent the value and motivations of both leaders and followers.” James MacGregor Burns
“Leaders excite people to exceptional performance.” Rob Goffee and Gareth Jones
