"I think there is an emotional element to leadership-Charisma." By Randy Haykins.
Leadership is the cornerstone of a great business no matter if it is small or large without leadership you have nothing. As we have studied different entrepreneurs throughout this semester I have come to love and admire the great leadership it takes to start a business.
Randy Haykins also said "Leadership is identifying the future before it's happened. A good leader has more than vision, a good leader sees a endpoint. And then somehow garners sufficient resources around him or herself to work towards that end." I think of Steve Jobs when I read this quote because he started a computer company was then fired from his company he started. The company then struggles and bring him back and what does he do he changes the tech industry with the iPod, iPad, and the iPhone. A computer company that now leads in music, and telecommunications because a leader saw a future that no one else did and then surrounded himself with the resources to find the end.
We are all destined to leave a footprint of our lives in this world we all want to be remembered. Some want to be remembered throughout time and by millions and millions of people, while others just want to be remembered by their loved ones and friends that they have done so much for. It is this drive that makes great leaders in business those that will do everything they can to leave a mark and if they fail or succeed they will just be happy they tried.
