Leadership seems like a simple concept, but it frequently perplexes us.
Many of us confuse the concept of leadership with the role of management, while the two are completely distinct. Leadership is often thought of as a person’s rank or the seniority of someone’s role in an organization, but that is really just management. To make things more confusing, many people define leaders as those who possess charisma, make powerful speeches and have personal attributes such as charm.
But none of these definitions really gets to the point. Perhaps my favorite definition of leadership comes from Dwight D. Eisenhower: “Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because HE wants to do it.” Another great definition comes from Peter Drucker, the dean of modern management, who stated: “Effective leadership is not about making speeches or being liked; leadership is defined by results, not attributes.” Sales leadership is similarly about getting the sales team to achieve results (to Drucker’s point) by leading the team in a way that THEY want to follow and not because they are told to do so (to Eisenhower’s point).
