Kindle Notes & Highlights
You can’t have a tribe without a leader—and you can’t be a leader without a tribe.
Management is about manipulating resources to get a known job done.
Leadership, on the other hand, is about creating change that you believe in.
Today, marketing is about engaging with the tribe and delivering products and services with stories that spread.
Leaders lead when they take positions, when they connect with their tribes, and when they help the tribe connect to itself.
Great leaders create movements by empowering the tribe to communicate. They establish the foundation for people to make connections, as opposed to commanding people to follow them.
“in a hierarchy every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence.”
Leadership is a choice. It’s the choice to not do nothing.
Leadership comes when your hope and your optimism are matched with a concrete vision of the future and a way to get there.
You don’t have to be in charge or powerful or pretty or connected to be a leader. You do have to be committed.
If your organization requires success before commitment, it will never have either.
