Why Leaders Get Followed - Pointers from 297 people who chose to follow them.
Does every manager lead, inspire and motivate their team to new heights? Of course not, but some are remembered for years...even decades by members of their team. People have told me they have fond, warm memories when I ask them to tell me about the best leader they ever worked for. So instead of writing an article about the dynamics of leadership, I though it may be more useful to view leadership from the eyes of those that follow.

Mentoring and Millennials
According to Bob Canalosi, chief learning officer of General Electric Health Care, a top leadership competency needed in the 2020 workplace is to be a “legendary builder of people and teams.” Canalosi explains this as “coaching and mentoring both face-to-face and virtually; challenging people to achieve more than they believed they could.” Marshall Goldsmith, executive educator and coach, also predicts that a top competency for leaders of the future will be “sharing leadership.”

Creativity---the Most Crucial Factor for Leadership Success
Executives report that creativity is the number one leadership competency.

Selling A Competency or a Responsibility
Is selling a competency reserved for those with "sales" in their titles or is it a responsibility of everyone in the organization? Top performing companies see selling as a competency important to everyone in leadership or a position of influence.

Effective Personal Leadership
When we combine personal competency in all areas of leadership skills with an organizational culture which supports people, their development, and their success, we end up with exceptional leadership which, in turn, inspires the best effort in others.

LEADERSHIP IS INSIDE-OUTSIDE
A potential leader requires solid knowledge that comes only from inside and he should have competency to complete the things internally. The whole earth is following the principle of ‘Inside-Outside’. Competency is also created inside and bringing it outside up to 100 per cent is leadership. Leadership is always performance, never position and always regardless of power.

The Foundations of a Strategic Competency System for Leadership Development
Nurturing competency in leadership becomes “strategic” when organizational objectives match the competency development required to achieve them, and, the efforts are coordinated with human resources.

Commodity Value Proposition - An Oxymoron?
How do you find your value proposition when everything you do and everything you sell seems to border on being a commodity because everybody is trying to do the same thing to create competitive advantage? “Oh, but we’re different. We sell our World Class Service.” Right ………………………. How many companies do you know that don’t say they have world class service. Many say that servicing the customer is their core competency. If they truly do have world class service, service is not their core competency it’s what they are doing to create and maintain that level of service that is their true core competency.

Framework for Competency-based Management
This framework provides a set of specifications for the development and implementation of competency profiles, tools and mechanisms in support of career management, learning and development, succession planning, recruitment, performance management and staffing.

The framework covers:
• Why competency-based human resource management is implemented;

When The Leader Speaks...
When great leaders speak, things happen! People become engaged. Teams gel. Customers are served. Problems are solved and products are invented. Such is the power of a leader’s communication. So important is communication that it is difficult to find a leadership text that does not devote a significant portion of its pages to the topic. Unfortunately, most such works present communication as simply another important leadership competency up there with project management and strategic thinking. Communication is not a leadership competency; it is your leadership. Leadership and communication are synonymous; virtually all of one’s leadership is manifest through communication. As James C. Humes wrote: “Every time you speak, you are auditioning for leadership.”

The seven essential willabilities of real leadership
I have been convinced for some time that many people have the skills of real leadership and yet very few have the will. Skill without will is a ship without a rudder. Competency (ability) is useless without commitment (will). By combining them together in remarkable ways we bring our true character to everything we do and demonstrate our true capability. I call this willability. In preparation for some upcoming mentoring assignments I created the concept of willability in order to emphasise for my clients that commitment is really what makes competency worthwhile. There are seven essential willabilities of real leadership.
