Leadership as Demonstrated by Hanley Denning

Taken from Hanley Denning's address to the ICL Leadership Exploration Breakfast Forum in May, 2006

Leadership as demonstrated by Hanley Denning:

1) Have a vision - really understand it, and never lose sight of it.
2) Be patient and extremely disciplined as you work, step by step,
towards your vision. Don't get ahead of yourself.
3) Embrace those around you - listen to them carefully and often - and
incorporate them into your actions.
4) Be a hands on, equal player - this builds trust, but also builds your
own understanding.
5) Be willing to make mistakes - none of this is already scripted. Take
the risk, you may be surprised at the outcome.
6) Persistence is a must  - keep at it. If you believe in your vision,
don't give up. Find ways to move forward, even if it is by baby steps.
