11 Forgotten Factors for Leadership in Large Organisations

1. It's a mindset not a job title. 
2. It's a set of daily behaviours not a job grade.
3. It requires example.
4. It requires talking, listening, cajoling, asking questions, inspiring...
5. It requires emotional intelligence, EQ, developed by getting feedback and focusing on one's personal development.
6. And EQ=2 x IQ.
7. Great leaders give clarity. Of job, role, purpose.
8. It's a tough and lonely job in which many will not like you all of the time. That's why you're a leader: to steer a path which many are not sure they can maintain.
9. Leadership means connection. There is 'hi-tech' e.g. e-mail and there is 'hi touch' e.g. coaching. Both are critically important. The latter is frequently neglected.
10. Leadership requires learning. Which means mistakes will be made. Great leaders admit to such mistakes, learn and never repeat the error again.
11. Leadership requires standing up, taking responsibility and owning consequences. Anyone can be a leader. Only a few are willing to stand up and out from the crowd.
