Leadership is Influence

...The mark of a good leader is loyal followers; leadership is nothing without a following... Proverbs 14:28 (MSG)

Our opening scripture reveals to us that leadership is the ability to inspire followership. Also the measure of your followership is the size of your influence. If leadership is influence then we have to learn how to lead better than we are leading right now.

May I also remind you that a leader is someone others are willing to follow. So we can say that leadership is the ability to influence others through inspiration rather than manipulation. Hence, if you are a good leader people will willingly follow you.

A popular definition of leadership is that leadership is influence. It is the ability to influence others. What is influence? Influence is the ability to determine the thoughts, words, actions or behavior of another. 

What is culture? The popular definition of culture is that it is a way of life. One of the dictionary definition of culture is as follows: “It is the way of thinking, talking, acting or behaving in a particular environment.

Leadership is the ability to determine the thoughts, words, actions or behavior of another and culture is the way of thinking, talking, acting or behaving in a particular environment. That means leaders shape culture.

Therefore if you are going to be a generational leader, your leadership must shape culture.
