The popular notion that leadership is based on the person leading the team is no longer the way it was, people nowadays are aware that it' the team that matters, it doesn't even matter what your team is made up of.
With the advent of modern technology, it has become unpopular, even dangerous, to have a top down kind of leadership.
Each team member is now expected to be their own kind of leader. Currently, any leader at the top of their field, whether it be in the classroom, the workplace, at home or in the media, is aware that it is not enough to be, but that one should always aspire to be the best in their field.
Effective leaders are adaptable. They know that information is more important than status in times like these. Powerful leaders know when to wield and restrain their power, whether it is in letting a young student show their insights in the classroom, to hearing an employee's opinion in the workplace, or even in recognizing that a child's temper tantrum is their way of stamping their territory at home.
Every member of the group wields their own form of leadership, with each member affecting his team mates; it's not just the leader who has the power to direct or influence, it's a dynamic thing where everyone's action and opinions affects all others in the group.
Purpose and responsibility are the primary concerns of strong leaders; they are the ones giving meaning and direction to the group, but they are also the one who shoulders the responsibility for the group's actions.
Whereas a fine leader is well known in the classroom, office or home, or whatever their chosen occupation is; you will find that a superior leader practices their leadership in all aspects of their lives whether it is in their home, career, or in their community.
Change is a permanent part of our world and strong and superior leaders understand that, it's why they would push and prod, direct and manipulate when change is necessary. These leaders lead through example, they are the first one to pick the shovel and do the work, inspiring others to do the same.
Knowing when to let go of the reigns is the mark of a true leader. Learning how to find meaning is the mark of a true leader. It is about having a purpose. It is about squaring your shoulders and bearing the consequences.
