A GREAT LEADER IS NOT WHAT YOU THINK
Most people believe that leadership is a God-given skill bestowed on thefew; a combination of raw talent, playmaking ability, charisma, dominance, and emotional extroversion that stands out in a crowd. So when we become leaders, we rely on what we’ve seen in the movies. We take the clutch shots, show more emotion, bark out orders, stamp out dissent in the locker room, and practice speeches in the mirror. Sam Walker’s research shows none of those things are required. Sometimes the best leader on ateam isn’t obvious to the outside world. In fact, it might be the lastperson you’d expect.
