Summary of James M. Kouzes & Barry Z. Posner's Learning Leadership

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Leadership is essential because it makes a significant difference in people’s levels of engagement, commitment, and performance. Developing your leadership abilities will help you improve the way people around you feel about their workplace and promote more productive organizations.

#2 There are people who believe that not everyone has the potential to lead, and that not everyone has the capacity to learn to lead. These myths, misconceptions, and false assumptions about leadership create barriers to developing leaders at all levels.

#3 The talent myth has captivated the training and development world for years, and some have come to accept it as the new gospel. However, leadership is not a talent that you have or don’t have. It is an observable, learnable set of skills and abilities.

#4 The myth that leadership is a position and that if you don't have a title of authority, you aren’t a leader, is completely false. Leadership is not a rank, title, or place. It’s about the actions you take, the values that guide your decisions and actions, and the visions you have for yourself and others.
