I want to agree with JOHN C. MAXWELL who wrote ' These are classic pictures of leadership: William Wallace leading the charge of his warriors against the army that would oppress his people and him. Winston Churchill defying the Nazi threat as much of Europe collasped. Mahatma Gandhi leading the two hundred mile march to the sea to protest the Salt Act. Mary Kay Ash going off on her own to create a world class organization. Martin Luther King Jr standing before the Lincoln Memorial challenging the nation with his dream of reconcialiation. Each of these people was a great leader and impacted hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people. Yet these pictures can also be misleading. THE REALITY IS THAT 99% of all leadership occurs not from the top but from the middle of an organization. Usually, an organization has ONLY one person who is the leader. So what do you do if you are not that one person? You do not have to be the CEO to lead effectively. You can make a great impact through your leadership in an organization irrespective or regardless of your position in that organization. (C.Y Amoah, CEO, GMC GHANA FOUNDATION. +233248995511)
