Leadership. It's such a lonely word.
And before you fear that a rip off of a Billy Joel song follows, I'd just like to say this: Leadership - it's hardly ever heard. Or seen for that matter - like taniwha, we know it exists but it's very hard to say exactly what it is or how it works.
Leadership is one of those buzzwords that has passed its use-by date and should probably be taken out the back and put out of its and our misery for its general lack of usefulness to humanity.
It's been a ticket to ride, a boogie man to blame and an excuse to randomly circumnavigate all due process in the name of "showing some leadership" when following any form of democratic consensus would have taken longer and got better results.
If you look up the flooded online sites for leadership courses and what they entail you'll find an extended exercise in ... um ... telling other people what to do and talking a lot about how you've told other people what to do.
