Comment on Leadership Development: Just in Case or Just in Time by Bahadur Shah

For many leaders, it is just about listening and understanding the behavior of their employer. However, on the other hand their employees most often have a different perspective on their managers. Leadership development training just doesn't teach them to listen to their employees, rather it educates managers and leaders with the skills to read through the emotional and psychological patterns of employee behavior. Nice post nevertheless.

Comment on Are You Deeply Read or Widely Read? by Ram Sharma

In my opinion, a leader must be both widely and deeply read. Being insightful about an array of things is a great asset but being deeply read about things that are most relevant is equally important.
This was a great read!

I think you ask a good question David. It’s been my experience that those who are seen as really effective organization-wide leaders tend to be those that are able to think and act beyond their area of specialization. Certainly there are those who stay with their specialization and become lead accountant, for example. But the accountant that becomes a leader in his or her speciality will be pigeonholed as “the accountant”. The marketing folks will have trouble seeing the accountant leader as their leader.

The other thing that I thought about when reading your question was that my entire article was based on the assumption that we would want to be a seen as a leader, not just in our own area but in the wider organization. But what if we don’t want to be a leader? I’ve decided to address this in this week’s article so watch for it.

But if we’re being specialists, and playing to our strengths, why should we need to be seen as leaders?
