UNCOMMON LEADERS

Men and women who lead on the highest level are quite extraordinary.  They are people of action who have their priorities in line.  I have found that they are some common threads in these uncommon leaders.  They are:

- Futurists:  their dreams are bigger than their memories

- Lobbyist: their cause outlives and outspeaks their critics

- Catalysts: they initiate movement and momentum for others

- Specialists: they don't do everything; they do one thing well

- Optimists: they believe in their cause and their people beyond reason

- Economists: they value every resource as a steward of their cause

- Activists: they are doers and empower others by their actions

- Strategists: they plan how to use every resource available to be successful

- Enthusiasts: they have a passion that defies logic and magnetically attracts others

- Pragmatists: their legacy is that they solve the practical problems people face

- Industrialists: they roll up their sleeves and work hard

- Finalists: they labor with diligence and dedication to the end so that they finish well

(John Maxwell)
