“Leadership is a practice not a position. It is a practice of building influence relationships to create a movement for transforming change. My issue with most of the leadership stuff is that the followers—more appropriate in the idea economy or society to say collaborators or partners—are not considered in the leadership dynamic. This is counter-intuitive to the notion that the level of complexity we deal with on a daily basis requires the abilities and talents of people fully committed to the mission or tasks at hand. Leadership is contained in the leadership dynamic, not in the abilities of one person, the leader.” ~John Dentico
