Thoughts on Leadership Development by Tony Morgan

Some great thoughts by Tony Morgan from his book Killing Cockroaches:

• Leaders can't be recruited from the platform. We have to challenge them one-on-one. It requires a personal invitation.



• Leaders won't be fulfilled by performing tasks. We need to give them real responsibility.



• Leaders don't follow doers. We need to make sure they're connected to another strong leader.



• Leaders don't want to be micromanaged. We have to eliminate the tendency to control the process. Instead, hold people accountable for the outcomes.



• Leaders won't commit to ambiguity. We need to offer a clear vision. And it better be big.



• Leaders just don't show up. We have to be intentional about leadership development.
