The Art of Leadership
by Wilferd A. Peterson
The leader is a servant.
The leader sees through the eyes of his followers.
The leader says, "Let's go!" and leads the way rather than "Get going!"
The leader assumes his followers are working with him, not for him.
The leader builds others and their character.
The leader has faith in people. He believes in them, and thus draws out the best in them.
The leaders uses his heart as well as his head.
The leader plans and sets things in motion.
He is a man of action as well as a man of thought.
The leader has a sense of humor. He has a humble spirit and can laugh at himself.
The leader can be led. He is not interested in having his own way, but in finding the best way.
He has an open mind.
The leader keeps his eyes on high goals. He strives to make the efforts of his followers and himself contribute to the enrichment of personality, the achievement of abundant living for all, and the improvement of all.
The leader is nonjudgmental and accepts others for what or who they are.
