While reading the weblog of turnaround strategist Steven Feinberg, also author of 'The Advantage Makers: How Exceptional Leaders Win by Creating Opportunities Others Don't', I came across his unique definition for 'leadership':
"Leaders create advantage that encourage followers."
According to him, "followers can be customers, employees, stakeholders or even voters".
Also, "your leadership becomes obvious & irresistible when you shift the odds in their favour by producing leverage for followers".
He posed this pertinent question:
"If you are a leader, do your strategies & tactics create advantage for your employees?"
[If you haven't yet read Steven Feinberg's book, his weblog - which serves as a wonderful teaser - is a goldmine of information nuggets on 'Advantage Making'.]
