“You manage things, 
you lead people.  Management is 
climbing the ladder effectively.  Leadership is making sure the 
ladder is leaning against 
the right wall.”
Stephen Covey

Effective Leadership in the 21st century depends not only on what leaders do, but also on how they do it; less on who they are and more on what they believe. “They serve as you lead”. Lord Sainsbury.
