This document discusses the differences between management and leadership and highlights characteristics of effective leaders. It contrasts traditional views of leadership and examines Jim Collins' five levels of leadership capabilities. Collins identified level 5 leadership as the highest level, capable of taking a company from mediocrity to sustained excellence. Effective leaders are able to create a compelling vision, sell their vision to others, and make decisions with situational awareness and a focus on the big picture. The context of their situation can determine whether someone emerges as a great leader.

Management versus leadership Matching the leaders to the context
Management versus leadership
Leadership per Jim Collins Level 5 refers to the highest level in a hierarchy of executive capabilities that he identified during his research. Leaders at the other four levels in the hierarchy can produce high degrees of success but not enough to elevate companies from mediocrity to sustained excellence getting the right people on the bus (and the wrong people off the bus) creating a culture of discipline Participative approach, first who then what
Traditional contrasts Murray Johannsen
Leadership is tough stuff (Vision alone is not enough) Situational awareness Likeable-appealing to the common man and the intellectual at the same time Leaders need a compelling vision of the future Smart, good memory, don’t bring up ancient history The vision needs to be the right vision Personal integrity, high ethical standards Leaders need to sell their vision Mistakes must be remedied early Must be a big picture thinker Consistency while being adaptable Leaders get people to follow Articulate, poised, charm, charisma Compassionate Self confidence is good High emotional intelligence Focused-Sticks to the talking points Context determines the formula that is needed
Great leaders
Prophets Prophets are not usually appreciated in their lifetimes They are often persecuted for their beliefs and prophecy Hard to be a leader and a prophet
