Real or fake?

AuthenticityThree ways to lead:

1.By example2.By example3.By example

Authenticity

Insight. Sometimes we refer to this as vision, but that usually has exclusive reference to the future.

• While leaders must have vision, they need more. They need wisdom and discernment.

• They need to be able to look at complex situations, gain clarity, and determine a course of action.

Authenticity

Initiative. Leaders go first.

• They don’t sit on the sidelines.

• They don’t ask others to do what they are unwilling to do themselves.

• Instead, they lead by example.

Authenticity Influence. It’s no coincidence that influence and

influenza (the flu) come from the same root word.

• Real leaders are contagious. People “catch” what they have.

• People are drawn to their vision and their values. They are able to gather a following and move people to act.

• To change metaphors, they are like human wave pools, creating a ripple effect wherever they go.

Authenticity Impact. At the end of the day, leaders make a

difference.

• The world is changed because of their leadership. They are able to create real and lasting change.

• Unless something has shifted, they aren’t leaders. They are only entertainers. There is a big difference.

• The measure of leadership cannot be found in the leader; it is found in the impact the leader has on his or her followers.

Authenticity Integrity. Not every leader is benevolent.

• Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin were leaders. They had insight, initiative, influence, and impact.

• Yet their lives were not integrated with the highest values. Integrity—or the lack thereof—ultimately determines the quality of a person’s impact.

• In a sense, this is the foundation of authentic leadership.
