Leadership guru Antony Bell is speaking now on "Leadership: Ensuring Your Fundraising Success." He has previously worked with the Navigators and is author of The Clock Tower: A Story about the Three Critical Elements of Leadership (complimentary copies were given to all participants). He is now CEO of Leader Development, Inc. Here are his pertinent points.
Leadership matters in every context.
Character and competence are equally important. David was a great leader because he had both character and competence.
Great leadership is pursuing noble ends with noble means.
Jesus did not start out with a mission statement. He started out with his values. He declared the ends before he defined the means.
If you have the right knowledge, you can develop the skill to be an effective leader.
Four quadrants of leadership
Noble, but inept
Noble and competent
Inept and corrupt
Competent, but corrupt
Three dimensions to leadership
Organizational
Operational
People
A well-led organization integrates all three dimensions.
