Patrick Powaser of Ho'ohana Coaching & Consulting shares a surprising insight that there is no such thing as a leadership position. Leadership doesn't come by putting someone into a "leadership position". Just because you are considered an executive or a manager does not make you a leader. Likewise, you can be a leader and not designated an executive or manager. Patrick observes that many companies make the mistake of thinking that designating a job as a leadership position means the occupant is now a leader. Although some have a higher starting point than others, development is still required for a leader to reach their full potential. Patrick reminds us that leadership positions don't exist - leadership is not a position, it's about influence and the ability to create followers.
