Supervisor

“Leadership is about the motivation and inspiration of people, and the effective use of technical, management, and communication skills to successfully achieve desired goals and objectives”.

Andy Garcia-Rivera, Director, EH&S, University of Wisconsin

"Men and women don't do what they are responsible for, they do what they are accountable for."Bruce Wilkinson, CSP, President, Workplace Consultants, Inc.

Leadership and Responsibility

Why Leadership Is Important

No leadership skills = limited growth

Effective leadership = cost savings

Employers are focusing on inadequacies

Everyone is expected to lead in their role

Your impact on others –Intent Vs Impact

Post 9/11 issues – balance not “frenzy”

Observations

Leadership is a personal transformation

Leadership is developed, not discovered

Leadership is the ability to get followers

It’s about taking people to a new place

Leadership is influence!
