It is very important to have your own definition of leadership. By having a definition you have something to go by when you forget and get caught up in a routine. I believe that it is almost mandatory to have a set of guidelines to be a great leader; this will define who you are and what type of leader one may become as well as how you got into that leadership role as well as how to further yourself in the career field as a leader.
My definition of leadership is how I feel a leader should be. The concepts in my definition were developed by what I have experienced in some leaders and the skills and personality traits that I would determine to be necessary in a leader. My definition describes the qualities I would like to have when and if I ever have the opportunity to be a leader. It would guide me in my actions as a leader as well as be an example to other leaders.
My approach to understanding leadership is to learn from myself and other leaders mistakes and to accept change when it is for the better, also challenge myself to have a voice and to stand up for my moral values. Everyone makes mistakes on occasions and one should learn to either not to make the same mistakes or to change them to have the outcome desired. Change isn’t always easy, but it is sometimes necessary. It all comes down to this simple definition. The definition of leadership that I have designed for myself includes who I am as a leader and how I want to motivate others to be.
My definition of management would be someone who handles tasks and controls the employees also someone who follows orders whether they are morally right or wrong. (Management, 2014) The difference between leadership and management that I see is managers are consistent, not originals, controlling, and are rule followers; leaders motivate, accept change, are risk takers, inspire, and are originals.
