Leaders Aren't Leaders Based on Their 'Say So'
Leaders Aren't Leaders Based on Their 'Say So'
There's a chemistry that happens with leadership in any organization. It's more than just necessary skill sets and knowledge base which is needed to lead an organization into their next phase, it's also having a way with people and working with an existing organizational history and culture. One can't take each facet at face value. It's a combination of people connection, articulated vision and priority setting and savvy. A person doesn't get parachuted into an organization to be automatically loved and accepted and followed no matter what. They need to prove themselves to the people within, and a part of that is having the history of successes within their previous positions. Otherwise are they just people walking into a job saying "I'm a leader and have no data, no past history with which I can prove it to you?" How would that define them as a leader?
One can have all the skills necessary to be a strong leader, however unless it's measured against something, an organization or group's performance, there is no way to know. Putting the right people in the right place is one way to help those skills evolve and shine. Question is, are the right people in the right places to make an organization shine?

Can we really define successful leaders independent of organizational performance? If you're talking about people leaders, then yes. And when we go back and look back at leaders in history, we might look at trends and ways of being independent of the places they worked in. However these leaders earned their reputations based on the work they did with people in organizations and whether or not those organizations prospered. One can be a success in one organization and bomb in the next. There's a great deal at play here.
