The Leadership Challenge


 

Being a leader means more than bearing a title that says you are in charge. It is a way of being, a way of inspiring, and a way of communicating with others such that they are inspired to follow you because they want to, not because they have to. Great leaders inspire us because of who they are. Think of John F. Kennedy, Mother Theresa, Martin Luther King, Ghandi, Golda Meir. All of these leaders were reluctant leaders; that is, they set out with a purpose and clear vision of who they were and what they saw possible. It was an afterthought that people followed them.
 


The coaches at Living Forward, want to help you discover the leader in you.  Our course is based on the book, The Leadership Challenge, by James Kouze and Barry Posner.  Their more than 25 years of experiences and research have led them to the conclusion that leaders are not born, they are made.  Taking this course will better enable you to get in touch with the leader inside of you, whether you are a leader by choice or by circumstance.
