Warren Bennis And Maxwell Definition Of Leadership

207 Words1 Pages
Everyone has their own purpose and definition of leadership. According to an online article “What is Leadership?” by Kevin Kruse (2013), Warren Bennis and John Maxwell stated their definitions of leadership. Bennis stated, “Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality” and Maxwell said, “Leadership is influence – nothing more, nothing less” (Kruse, 2013). Both of them have valid definitions; each leader will different views on leadership but all of them have a common theme to them. My definition of leadership is a combination of Bennis and Maxwell. I believe leadership is ability to influence, direct, and guide your followers to reach and accomplish a certain goal or vison. First, a leader cannot be a leader without followers.
