Let’s
take another look at the differences between a boss and a leader.
H. Gordon Selfridge built one of the world’s largest department stores in
London. He was in essence a real leader,
not a boss.
In
his own words, here are the differences between the two.
~The boss drives his men.
~The leader coaches them.
~The boss depends on authority.
~The Leader on good will.
~The boss inspires fear.
~The leader inspires enthusiasm.
~The boss says “I”.
~The leader says “we”.
~The boss fixes the blame for the
breakdown.
~The leader fixes the breakdown.
~The boss says “Go”.
~The leader says “Let’s go!”
That
is enough for one day.
