I have put together a summarised list of the lessons that I learned from watching Ben Zanders DVD about his book titled “The Art of Possibility”.

►If there is no path create your own.

►Never doubt the capacity of the people you lead to accomplish whatever you dream for them.

►When leadership is defined not as a position you hold, but as a way of being, you discover that you can lead from wherever you are.

►A leader’s job is to speak possibility and awake possibility in other people.

►Display a strong vision of the future so that you have a clear sense of direction.

►Communicate effectively and listen well.

►Seek responsibility and be responsible.

►Quiet the voice in the head that says “I can’t do it”.
