TJ Walker breaks down leadership as five concrete steps: notice a problem, brainstorm solutions, pick one and do it, get others on board with your vision, and solve it together. No title required.
Chapters
There are gazillion books on the subject and management gurus. And yes, it can be an overworked subject, but what does it really mean, especially if you don't have the title of CEO or president or some official title? Leadership means you see a problem, you brainstorm on solutions, you come up with something working together with other people or your own idea that you think is the best possible way of solving the problem, and then you work to solve the problem, and then you try to encourage other people, and you get other people to share your vision of a solution and solve the problem. That's all leadership really is.
